I want to know what is the difference between genital herpes and a cyst?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Herpes vs Cyst: Herpes is usually an open tender sore on top of the skin, whereas a cyst is a type of clogged pore--a bump under the skin. Let your doctor take a quick look. It should be very easy to tell the difference for her or him.
