Is this suspicious?

I check myself down there quite often just to see if anything looks abnormal. Yesterday I spread my labia minora and next to my vulva (but on my labia minora) I noticed A very tiny little pink patch. I guess it doesn't look like a cut because it isn't red and it's circular but it's darker pink than the surrounding area. Doesn't hurt or itch, wouldn't have noticed unless I wasn't spreading myself to check everywhere and i can only really see it with a flashlight but I never noticed it before. My sexual experiences are limited. Should I be worried? Haven't had intercourse in a looong time and other than that I feel physically fine.

This alone would not be in any way suggestive of herpes. A blood test will let you know your HSV status although I do not recommend this without symptoms or part of mutually testing with a new partner if this is your joint desire.

I see it better when I've stretched the skin taught by the way. I can't tell if it's part of my normal anatomy or not. It also isn't raised nor does it hurt to the touch.
