    Hi, I'm sorry, it does look like herpes. Going to the doctor is the best thing to do.

      Would herpes pop like a white head with white pus?

      No, if you experience pimples like acne, it's unlikely to be herpes. In this case, it's more probable to be folliculitis. Keep your skin clean and dry to speed up healing. I know it's hard but avoid friction, the fluid from the sores can spread.

      It looked more like clear fluid on your picture but it easy to be mistaken. It's still a good idea to ask for a professional opinion.

      thanks for the feedback, the bigger sore was popped and white pus came out, and that is how it looked afterward. the smaller bumps went down before they could be popped. will update when i have results. so fingers crossed
