do i have herpes?

i don't know what to do i felt some itching and soreness on my vagina but just ignored it then i realised i had some spots of my lips and so i looked at my vagina and theres also 2 little spot/blister things there but there so little and tey only hurt every so often and i don't know whether ts herpes or not but i dont think my boyfriend has it we havn't even had sex yet either, i really don't know what to do i'm too embarassed to go to a doctor, do you reckon i could get it checked out at a clinic?and do you think it is herpes?

Hello,

The first possibility that is coming to my mind is of ingrown hair or infected hair follicle. Pls keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics. Also use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove.Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful.In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed.Pls consult a dermatologist in that case.It does not sound like herpes as herpes presents as itchy blisters which scab over.

Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
