herpes?

Hi there I have been freaking out for two days stressing over whether or not i have herpes. i just shaved with a new type of razor i have not used before and have had fairly bad reactions to shaving in the best. i have noticed red tender spots on my pubic hair area. there is nothing on my actual genitals however. the marks are red and sometimes white small water blisters. the skin peels and the area gets raw. it is not in a cluster and does not look like most of the pics of herpes i have researched. i do have pics but am not sure how to post. is this likely a reaction to shaving or herpes?

we don't look at pictures here. why not is explained in our read before posting post located in the important announcements tab.  

the best thing to do is to be seen and get this looked at. this sounds more than just a shaving rash and getting it looked at monday is the best course of action.

it doesn't sound like herpes but definitely get it looked at.
