Is this Herpes?

I had unprotected sex 10 days ago, and about 3 days after I started to have this weird feeling on my vagina. It wasn't a burning sensation, and I wouldn't say it was painful or itchy. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's the same feeling I had last month after I got with a new partner. I was tested in June and received a negative result for everything, but then I was diagnosed with a UTI on July 8th. I wasn't drinking enough water with the medication and I read that it could cause a yeast infection so I used Monistat 1 last Monday. It helped with the symptoms a bit, but it was also old (It wasn't expired, I do remember buying it at the end of last year though.)

Since then, I've been having a white discharge still and the same feeling. I also noticed part of my skin peeling the other day, only in one spot and today I saw this. It's just red and irritated, it doesn't hurt when I touch it or when I pee. I haven't had any flu-like symptoms either. I have an appointment with my GYNO on the 9th but I've been trying to get one sooner.
