Hi,

Herpes will not be a single lesion and also the pain will be crucial. Do not worry about herpes. It could a vulvar infection. Take some pain killers for two like paracetamol. Wash regularly with warm water. Do not use tight clothes and the clothes which irritates your skin. If you are married avoid intercourse till this subsided. If it is not subsiding or it turns into a pus collection then it needs treatment under prescription.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana Rajesh Babu, OB & GYN Specialist
