Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have seen the picture attached with the query. The small blisters that you are having can be due to either bacterial infection or herpes infection but a physical examination and investigation would be helpful in confirmation of the diagnosis.

I do recommend that you obtain a screening evaluation for Herpes- Serology for HERPES viruses. (Antibody tests - for HSV1 and HSV 2).
Meanwhile you can follow general cleanliness measures and avoid touching the area with bare fingers to avoid any further infection.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
