Question : I have one smallish red bump between my anus and the lip of my vagina. Is it possible/likely that this is herpes? I do shave the area as well.

Brief Answer:
appears to be a furuncle/boil.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, history of shaving and the picture.
The small red bump appears to be simply a boil and not like the appearance of herpes.
This is usually self-limiting and does not need any treatment.
I hope this answers your query.
Please take care while shaving from next time.
Have a great day ahead.
