I wanted to upload better photos. As you can see there are a cluster of small blister looking bumps. They are three bumps close together. They don’t itch, hurt, nor cause urinating issues. 

Hello all, I am waiting to go to my doctor and get tested. Around the beginning of October I noticed a pimple/ small dot in the entrance of my vagina (I’m not sure what to call it) I also notice that my discharge was much thicker. I thought that I had a yeast infection. I used an old remedy of coconut oil. About a week later I looked and I notice the one pimple was now three small bump/circle cluster bump. At that time I wasn’t itching or experiencing anything. The last time I had sex was in August. I looked up the symptoms to herpes and thought it was That. I felt my vagina was itchy and burning that week slightly. I never felt anything else however it’s now January and the bumps are still here. I’m waiting for my doctors appointment, does it look Like herpes?

    hi, s92203

    The pictures aren't clearly. I think you should meet your doctor as soon as possible. As bumps may be a signal of many infections like herpes, HPV or other vaginal problems. Home remedies may irritate your condition if your skin is sensitive. To make sure you need to get tests. If you have herpes, doctors may recommend antiviral medications for you. Best wishes to you.

      hi, eleanor29469

      herpes is usually treated by valtrex, acyclovir. If you have allergies to oral drugs, you can move to apply creams. Instead of taking medicines, you try applying valtrex, zovirax or prosurx cream. I used to apply prosurx cream to treat herpes (oral herpes not genital herpes) and it took me 3 days to bring good results. As I see on the package, the cream can treat both oral and genital herpes. To make sure, you should consider asking your doctor before using. The cream worked for me, but I don't know whether it works for you, as you often have allergies.

      I used to hear the cream as my classroom applied it. But I'm not sure, so I've ever tried. Maybe I'll ask my classroom again.

      Since you often have allergies, you need to be careful before taking or applying things
