Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Needs to be seen: Lumps, bumps, blisters and other skin abnormalities on the genitals need to be evaluated. An examination is needed to determine the cause. A single painful sore is concerning for herpes and a variety of other causes.
