Self Examination, I am panicking

Hi,

I (20F), have just done a self examination and what I have seen has shocked me. I've only had one sexual partner and that was 2 years ago, I've been tested for STIs and I don't experience any symptoms so I've had no reason to examine until general curiosity.

I'll attach two photos, both of my vaginal entrance, and I really think this looks unhealthy? Sorry to seem so ignorant, but I don't really know the norm because I'm not exactly sexually active and I have limited education about healthy vaginas.

Thank you so much to anyone who can offer advice.imageimage

    Hey, I see there is one person following so I'll just let you know, I sent the photos to an online doctor (not the most amazing way to consult I know) and she said it looks like VP.

    I'm going to book an appointment asap anyway, but if anyone similar is reading this and is also freaking the f**k out like I did, please breathe its gonna be okay xx
