After i had sex i noticed spotting and went to the doctor she said i had an abrasion i got tested months ago for herpes. internet says cut=herpes?

STD? Herpes?: Any genital area sore, including something that first appeared as a cut or abrasion, could be herpes. However, most cuts and abrasions are just that, not necessarily herpes. Most initial herpes causes multiple painful blisters and sores. However, spotting after sex often means cervicitis, sometimes due to STDs like chlamydia or gonorrhea; I hope you were tested for them.
