Suggest Treatment For Sore Blister On The Vagina

Last week I recently notices one only pea sized sore that is red and kind of looks like blister but is more under the skin causing a bump but contains no puss and is on the outside my vagina, I m very worried it could be herpes because every time I try to look on line about it I get the result of herpes I showed it to my mother and she told me not to worry unless more show up but now that I am worried about herpes I feel like I am analyzing every tiny bump!just wondering if it sounds like a herpe blister?!

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Sore bump on the perineum outside the vagina can be due to enlargement and inflammation of Bartholins gland.
Herpes simplex infection is characterized by multiple itchy fluid filled bumps or blisters.
A single bump is unlikely to be due to herpes, it is most probably Bartholins gland enlargement due to inflammation.
However, a clinical assessment is required before any treatment can be started.
Thus, I suggest you to consult a gynecologist for clinical assessment and thus treatment.

Thanks and take care
