test for GENITAL HSV-1?

test for GENITAL HSV-1?

i know i have hsv-1 orally (sore on my lip and lesions inside mouth)
if i take a blood test its gonna read positive but for WHERE?
around the same time i saw my cold sore i also saw that inside my vagina wasnt looking how it should be.
on the sides of my clitoris and going down is a white base in the crease.
it doesnt hurt or burn...my doctor checked it and said "it looks normal - very clean...i see white discharge so it must be a yeast infection" she gave me a pill for the yeast infection and famciclovir for my oral issue. i took the yeast infection pill first and the next day i started will the herpes pills...a week later i see a slight difference in my mouth and the same with my vagina. im worried i maybe touched my mouth and then touched/scratched my vagina so i gave myself hsv1 genitally. so anyways what TEST could i take to see of i have hsv1 genitally?
ty.

a blood test tells you what you have but not where it is.

you aren't going to transmit your oral herpes infection to your genital area. Your provider didn't see anything that looked like herpes genitally either.
