see attached. they aren't painful, aren't itchy, and they're firm. they look a little more irritated in these pictures because i've been poking, squeezing, biting at them (partially out of nervousness, partially to see if anything comes out of them). Don't look like they have fluid and i haven't seen anything come out of them. can't be certain though.

may have been exposed to hsv a few months ago. got genital swab tested after seeing some symptoms (discrete red bumps, not blisters, not grouped, not painful) and tests came back negative for hsv1 and hsv2. however, between these guys and a random blister that just appeared on my finger, i'm worried.

thanks
