Hi, I had unprotected sex with a new partner last weekend. Then a couple days after, I was itching on the side of my vagina after shaving. It turned into 3 slightly painful bumps (when touched).

I kept touching it the past few days to see if it was going down or whatever and today it looks worse! The middle bump is white and looks almost like an infected pimple or something. Should I go get tested? Are these herpes?

Thanks in advance!

    Hey, it looks like an infected hair follicle to me. Herpes usually start as a cluster, like 3 bumps.

    you only have one so dont worry yet. Monitor it
