I am scared I might have an std .
Hello I started having some itching last Saturday so I've been having itching for about a week now. Yesterday I saw a tiny painless whitehead on the top of my vulva above my clitoris. I've gotten cultured done but I don't think for herpes. I'm terrified that I might have it. The doctors at the er prescribed me metronidazole and doxycycline monohydrate a week ago niether of them seem to do anything. However I did develop some snotty looking discharge. Is my life over?

This is most likely fungal infection . Apply antifungal ointment twice a day and keep area dry. For itching you can take antipruritic drugs like cetrizine or levocet so that you don't scratch.
