Pimple, Ingrown Hair, Herpes ...IDK!

[unsure527]

Backstory. A few days ago I was alone in a public restroom "no tissue" in any of the stalls, (I only had to urinate) did so and pulled up my pants. I was wearing a pantyliner. Anyway after I got home some 3 hrs later, I showered and noticed I felt very irritated on the bottom left labia majora, further investigation found what appeared to be a hair bump. I put a warm compress on it to bring it to a head. Ugh in grown hair. I do shave often. I was able to get the hair out....but now, the once bump, ingrown hair looks like a herpes legion.  The sore is now red flat and very tender . Please help. I want to believe its because of irritation from the wet pantyliner rubbing against my newly shaved area.  SCARED

So, I had my appointment on Monday.  The doctor said, it was post inflammatory hypopigmentation.

No, i had on a pantyliner that was wet and it was rubbing against my newly shaven skin. I felt felt very irritated in the area when the liner and my underwear was touching. Once I got home and showered. I noticed an ingrown hair where I felt sore and irritated.  I was able to pull the hair out with some tweezers, put a hot compress on the area along with antibiotic ointment.  The next morning it there was a red sore in that spot. I am sexually active one partner. My last sexual encounter was 8/11 the sore happen on 9/7.

Hi, herpes cannot be contracted by what you describe.
