Sore on outer labia

One morning after having sex I woke up with a sore on my outer Labia. I was having a lot of discomfort as well so I went to the doctor. The doctor said I had a UTI and put me on a prescription. The sore went away after I was done taking the medication. This was a few weeks ago, but yesterday morning I woke up with the same sore in the exact same place as last time. It's only one sore. Do you think that I could possible have genital warts or herpes?

I'm going to see my doctor tomorrow. I'm very scared. Is there anything else that could cause a sore like this?

Definitely you need to go and be evaluated for herpes. Having the lesion reappear in the same area is very suspicious and herpes can cause uti like symptoms so it is possible you were misdiagnosed originally.  Go be seen today or tomorrow and get a lesion culture and typing done.

Warts would not come and go like this.
