      based on what I've seen online that doesn't look like herpes. does it hurt or itch? I'd still get it checked to be on the safe side.

    look like ingrown hairs as they seem to be at the root of most hairs. but see your doctor! if they sting and really hurt then maybe something else

    Folliculitis is common, and usually occurs in groin or on base of penis or groin area. Anywhere that can rub against something,cloths,hair,skin.

    No that doesn't look like herpes to me either and more like ingrown hairs etc.

    Herpes blisters generally look like a mouth ulcer would rather than raised spots like that
