Red dots on labia- PLEASEEEEE HELP ME

hi, I recently decided to inspect my vagina and found this dot on labia.

more info:

from afar, it looks like a raised fordyce spot or hair follicle, however if you look at it up close it's a small pon size red dot. it isn't raised. it doesn't itch burn or bother me. I found a few others in the general area- tiny dark hair follicle or fordyce spot looking but if you pull the skin their like a light red and not raised. also, if you bunch the skin together, it disappears.

it almost looks like a hair used ro live there but was pulled off and a red pin point stayed in its place.

the red dot is almost on a tiny capillary. I can't tell but I think.

doc and NP both saw and said it does jot look herpetic and not herpes vut doc swabbed it anyway bc I was crying in his office. he said he's sure it's not herpes. I'm still so scared I'm the one percent chance it is.

what do you all think it could be??

i have had a child- so maybe my vagina just changed? could it be herpes? or what??

i dont see these on the other side of labia though. thank you!

      could just be blood spots, the same as you might get raised blood spots on your skin. i defo would not worry at all. if it was any std you would know and it would be painful

    hi everyone. just update here bc I hate when I don't see follow up to posts! the doctor swabbed and it was negative for HSV. no idea what it is. I think some type of blood vessel under skin. they are still there ( a little faint ) but I'm no longer worried about them. thanks
