always worried about STD

So I am extremely nervous I have something wrong with me. I have OCD about STDs and am always worried I have something wrong with me. I started to develop a cold around last week (sore throat, swollen lymph nodes in neck only, kinda sore in my upper) I convinced myself that I had HIV and had to get tested. Test came back negative although because I am so worried about having STD I always examine myself. Around two days ago I noticed two white things on my vagina. They were painless and nothing abnormal about them except the fact that they were there. I would never have noticed them unless I was looking for something like I was. They worried me so I popped them. They never returned, scabbed, left any short of mark, or anything . They seemed to be ingrown hairs especially since i had recently shaved a few days before but they worried me. Along with this I had very uncomfortable itchy, lacy underwear on that seemed to have left a rash on my panty line that was a little irritated. I picked at it but nothing came out of these it looked like chicken skin. It has cleared up by now (two days later) except for the part i picked at. All this together plus with the cold now has me worried about possible herpes. I have been with the same boy for 6 months and never have a problem expect for when I convince myself of something and I'm sick of going into the doctor freaking out over an std and never having one. The people at the doctors probably think I'm crazy. Is this experience something I should be concerned about or let it slide and wait ? Had anything like this happened to anyone eles?

I advise to go to your obgyn and confirm...and also if really curious, get a herpesselect blood test.  No one can really say yes or no besides physical exam and blood test ( even that needs to be confirmed at time).  God bless!

Also could I get pimples because of my period? I'm on the depo shot so I rarely every get a period but a day after this happened I did get my period. So maybe a hormonal thing?
