First you need properly examined. If they feel that they look like they are due to herpes, they can do a pcr swab on them, you don't need obvious blisters for that.  that said, it's been so long now since these started that culturing them is worthless anyways.

go, be seen and get a better idea of what is going on. You've reached the limits of what an online message board can do to help you at this point.

Mine started out with what I thought was a pimple or ingrown hair on my labia. I was also having awful symptoms which I thought was a UTI, itching, burning when I pee, and overall tired and icky feeling. I went to my family doc thinking I had a UTI. He looked down there in the process and he asked me about the blister. I said it was there for a couple days and so he biopsied it, but didn't think it was herpes. Turns out that over the next few days I got MORE of these so called blisters, they were white and open, did not drain and were VERY sore. I went to my OB GYN doc and she said 99% it was herpes and did another biopsy. It was and I got started on Valtrex and topical lidocaine jelly for the pain and they dried up and went away.
