Is this herpes or a pimple? (PICTURES)

I have been diagnosed with HSV without typing for 2 weeks and I asked her to swap two things, one was like a cut bump and the other was like this white little thing from the skin I had it for at least a year and even she saw she was like that's a pimple. and the test she did was without typing so I don't know if it's HSV one or two. and I'm out of the country and I can't see a doctor. I had this white bump for like a year and it's like from the skin and the past ten hours it got this big red bump and it looks very scary. It hurts like a pimple pain when it first comes out. I'm just scared that this is it and that's my first outbreak. Please let me know if you know that what it is.

    Looks like a pimple to me I have genital herpes and it was a much clearer bubble. If you are worried do a swab test with your doctor or go or go to a dermatologist. Even if you did have herpes it is very much treatable.
