What Could Red Painful Sores On Outer Labia Suggest?

I have two red, sore-like things, side by side, on one outer libia. One is crater like and a tiny bit raised, as if bothered. the other is in a small, thin continuous line less than half an inch long and overall thin, like a cut, but doesn t really look like a cut. Both are not itchy, but feel uncomfortable and slightly painful/irritated when see brushed up against. They are both flat to the touch. I can t seem to find anything online that they look like. They appeared after having shaved earlier this morning if that could have anything to do with it. I don t remember cutting myself, however.

You may have inflicted injury to labia while shaving . Minor injuries initially go un-noticed initially.
Apply mupirocin ointment to it twice daily .
Maintain good perineal hygeine.
