Possible herpes. Really scared

So I recently noticed I have a slightly painful sore on my vagina. There is just one and it only becomes painful if I itch it. I'm not sure if it's herpes or just an ingrown hair because I do shave down there and I noticed it after I shaved last. The thing that scares me is I am sexually active. The symptoms I listed are my only ones.
