Brief Answer:
Herpetic lesions

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have reviewed the photographs.
These are vesicular lesions filled with fluid.
These are most likely to be herpes.
You should get acyclovir treatment after confirmation by smear and Herpes IgG and IgM levels in blood.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
