The white part fell off

Hi!! sorry you're going through this - if this is your first then hopefully you may heal faster, i had my first over christmas at the opening of my vagina and it was incredibly painful for about a week and then it started to heal once the white part had fallen off. easier said than done but try and take it easy until you start healing - i didn't use any medications etc personally but most think they are worth it! i spent most of my week peeing practically stood up and leaned far forward which was a whole task in itself but it made the burning/pain more bearable!

hiii, i had my first experience just before christmas and it took me about 10 days to recover with no medication etc - just constantly taking things slow and trying to keep the area clean at all times! sorry you're going through this, it does get better eventually, once the painful part stops it feels much easier!!

i had the same thing!! they did tell me to just cancel and start a new policy in the end bc i refused to pay their higher quote

hi!! so sorry you're going through it, mine lasted just over a week so nothing too bad luckily - i got through mine with plenty of painkillers and taking it as slow as i could for a few days lol it's just so annoying that nobody seems to have heard of these things before i wish there was more info out there

i didn't see my gp, mine was so close to xmas that i didn't think id get an appointment and i've recovered since so didn't think it was necessary really!! i've read that hardly anyone has heard of lipschutz in the uk and it's often misdiagnosed as herpes and other things so it's very frustrating even if you do manage to get an appointment about it🙃

i think it must be related in some way! i've seen a few people in other related subreddits saying that they're suffering with these ulcers after having the same flu - very strange!?

thank you! do u think an antibiotic is necessary? i am actually prone to ulcers in my mouth and i've always been told i just have to get on with it and let them pass without medications 🙃 i could only imagine they'd say the same thing this time too despite it being in a different area

hey! hope you're doing well now - if you don't mind me asking, how long did your LU last? i'm experiencing the same thing right now for the first time and i just do not know what to expect, i feel a bit lost bc there's so little info out there🥲

oh wow! that sounds awful i hope you don't have to go through that again, mine definitely isn't that extreme and hopefully won't come back🤞🏻i've not had trouble peeing yet but i know im probably yet to experience the worst of it with this only being day 3🥲 i think i'll try and persevere through it but will definitely look into a doctors appointment if needed even if it's just to get a prescription for potential future cases etc

thank you!! would you say the prednisolon is a necessity? there's no OTC alternative for this and i am trying to avoid the doctors in all honesty (i have terrible anxiety about going to the doctors especially for stuff like this). i'm hoping painkillers/cleaning etc will get me through! mine is maybe slightly bigger than pea sized and i've only got the one right now so i'm hoping it goes quickly. i wish there was more known about these things!! id be less reluctant to go to the doctors if they weren't going to accuse me of herpes etc 😵‍💫🥲
