Is it razor burn or herpes?

I shaved a few weeks ago and now that hair is growing back, I notice this area on my bikini line where it looks like razor bumps. I do have a photo of the area can anyone tell me based on the photo is it a herpes outbreak or nasty razor bumps. It is in the hair bearing area and I have no pain or itching but I am concerned.

thank u Grace actually there is not pain just itching where my bikini line is it was a bit red but no red bumps just feels like a heat rash or its no where near my vagina at all so I'm really thinking its just a razor burn.

I have no other symptoms no flu like no fever nothing but again thank u for your comment

in our read before posting post on the forum, we explain why we don't look at photos here.

bottom line is you need to be seen and get it looked at if you are concerned that this is more than just razor burn.   not likely to be herpes related if there is no pain or itching.
