HSV 1/2 inner labia

I've read a lot of the questions posted here about HSV 1 and 2.

I'm not sure if I can relate to most of them.... im with my boyfriend of 4 years and recently (1 year ago) i cheated on him.  I've been experiencing very itchy sores.  there are 3 or 4, with white heads.  it's been a few weeks and they're not going away.  every few days i see another sore with a head... very close to my pubic area.  but they're not in clusters.

the reason i worry so much is because i noticed them a month ago... i had a really bad infection.  my vagina was very very itchy... and it made the sores or pimples or whatever they are, hurt.  


you can barely see the marks.. they're like very shallow pits... about the size of the tip of a sharpie.  my vagina smells pretty off too....sometimes as bad as rotting fish and others like potatoes or bread.
what do you think the chances are of my symptoms being that of a herpes infection?

and if its not herpes, what could it be?

by the way, im not sure if fecal matter causes sores, but i was doing cleanses awhile ago that might have been part of the sores on my vagina.

You need to go and be seen today or tomorrow and get these looked at.  Get your vaginal sections tested for yeast and bacterial infections as well as get these properly examined. If they feel they look like herpes, they'll do lesion cultures and typing on them. This really sounds like something else is going on but don't put off being seen promptly.
