WORRIED ABOUT A SORE

[Summerflower076]

Hi this is a wierd one but I've noticed a week after intercourse that I've had a really painful red sore its hard to explain the place it's like the outskirts of my lip downstairs. Im panicking hoping it's a general sore but it looks like a red lump ish sore and it has like maybe a tiny bit of fluid inside like a fluid spot i took pic this morning with flash to see what it resembles so i could get a good idea of how to explain. Now the weird thing is this encounter i had i had been talking to him a few months on and off and he wasn't on the best place living wise homeless etc. Now I also got talking to the brother nothing like that just normal chat now he's told me have i been checked out because his brother and his mates kind pf wound me up joking maybe saying you want to get checked out. Now what worried me as he's lost his phone now i haven't even spoken to the guy but his brother is on holiday with him i rang the brother last night he said did u get checked out is this a indicator of something like he knoes something. And i only had this encounter last Friday would symtoms show this soon?

Sorry i know there are thread websites you can post i did make it as decent as i could but because im unsure and hard to explain i thought a pic would give a better detail as i keep thinking it could be a boil as where its situated it showed up as potential one of them. But going to definitely go to the walk in Thursday near me to get checked. I wasn't sure because it only happened last Fri/sat 8 days ago not even sure ot will detect this early on a swab.

Dude stop focusing on this guy being homeless and not answering his phone and other stuff you keep saying.

You NEED to go to the GUM clinic and get a full sti screen.

Unfortunately herpes is for life. You'll need advice on how to protect future sexual partners, advice on condoms (!) and how to get antivirals the next time it flares up.

Show it to a Medical professional not a load of strangers on the internet

Yeah sorry to say it that looks like herpes but definitely go and get it checked out. You can get oral anti virals that will lessen the impact but you need to get them asap.

I wouldn’t wait until Thursday as it may go down and not be a lot to see. Try and go before and get an appointment for Monday if possible. His brother obviously knows he has something and put you at risk.

Can symtoms happen like this just after 8 days. The pain is awful i actually felt like crying earlier i had to have a warm bath just to try and ease it. Will definitely book Monday if i can or mite be worth going to the chemist not sure if a pharmacist would be able to offer any over the counter treatments or something.

I would go today if you can - the sooner the better.

Get seen today OP, it looks like herpes and especially with the pain you have too. Good luck.

You should go to urgent care or ring 111 for advice.

Pain is awful im not sure weather to wait until Monday and go to pharmacy then book gp. Feel used and angry and scared all in one its a horrible feeling. I keep going over the brother asking me have i been checked out but it could of been banter

According to Google symptoms can appear within 2 to 12 days.

How are you, did you seek help yet?

Hello not yet im going to go to the sexual health Thursday. Its still there it did get bit better for 1 or 2 days now I've wiped by accident and it's made ot flare up again im hoping its just a sore bump like a boil or something like irratation but going to get checked out Thursday anyway just to be safe. Still no sign of him at all he either used me for sex or he knoes he's got something

Just block him,no contact at all with either of them.

I wouldn't block him if there's a chance I could get it in writing that he knew he had an STD. Im pretty sure it's a crime to deliberately infect someone like that.
