*PICS* Razor bumps or herpes lesions?

I recently was taking antibiotics (amoxicillian to be exact.) from having sinusitis. I have a VERY sensitive vagina and get yeast infections more often that I'd like to admit. I had the most horrific reaction to the amox and had the worst yeast infection I have ever had in my life. I am a very clean person and shower at least twice a day, sometimes three times a day, especially when I have a yeast infection because I just feel gross and dirty. I think the combo of the yeast infection, plus so much showering with harsh soaps, and shaving my vaginal area has led to these little blisters. They are so tiny and only show  up when I shave. I went ahead and got tested for HSV-2 but I want someone to look at it and tell me what they think: Is is just irritation from yeast infection, showering, and shaving, or is it GH? 

I will say my vagina is NOT painful at all. Not near the little blisters, or pain while urinating. It's just itchy. I am also not experiencing any flu-like symptoms or "sick" symptoms at all for that matter. Therefore, I'd like to preface that I don't have any symptoms of a herpes outbreak other than the mild itching and the apparent "blisters." However, they look WAY too small to be considered herpes lesions. I wanted to consult with people who have HSV-2 and can comment what their opinion is of this. 

Thanks in advance!

    Looks more like cuts or something .

    Have had a few people in here like that and theirs turned Out to be herpes .

    The only thing you can really do is wait it out.

    It seriously doesn't look like herpes and you aren't in any pain so yeah .. just seems like you are really irratatied down there .

    Don't get all worked up I highly doubt it is herpes .
