Is this herpes or a severe yeast infection?

Hi,

I have had a very itchy vagina for about 3 days now. I went in this morning to be treated for a yeast infection and these bumps began to appear. Please let me know your thoughts I am so worried.

    i would highly recommend you go back to your primary and ask for a swab test before you start to heal up even if they say its only a yeast infection. ask/demand to be tested for both HSV 1 & 2 from these sores.
