Sores (Tmi warning)

Today I have literally just woken up with strange sores on my outer labia. I though I might have hurt myself by scratching or something. When I had a closer look I saw these sores were dark purple like blood blisters sort of, and sort of asymmetrical.

One is near the opening of my vagina and it is very painful and I thought it was just thrush or something. However I also noticed there seems to be small white blisters (from what I can see) surronding it and coming from the opening.

I am concerned, I've only ever had one sexual partner before and we always use protection. Does this sound like herpes to anyone? It's also bleeding (not sure if it's discharge though).

I have also felt very run down and like I had the flu lately. Been feeling very achey today. Please help

    Early stages of herpes can look like red bumps or open wound craters. But if its purple you should definitely get it checked out by an OB/GYN and they can swab it for sure
