Is Genital Herpes Related With Spots On Clitoris?

Hello, I was just wondering if I have symptoms of genital herpes/ warts or if it is agitation from shaving or is it bug bites? In the past few months I have had protected vaginal sex with several partners, but sometimes unprotected oral sex and fingering has occurred. The last time was a few days ago, but the window in the house i was in was open, and I have had two other red bite like marks on my arms and underarm since that day also. I have three under the skin red spots near and around my clitoris and they are very itchy, along with a slightly less itchy vagina, but these lumps are soothed by sudocream. This occurred on my genitals a day after shaving, but I have never had bumps like before, although i am prone to shaving rash. i was just wondering if this sounds like genital herpes and also how long symptoms take to first appear? Thanks in advance

Hello and thanks for your question. I have read your description of the problem. It could be bug bites or irritation from shaving but I will give you a description of herpes so you can see if this fits. If you are exposed to herpes it usually takes 2-7 days for the symptoms to appear. The herpes rash is small blisters and they are very painful. The pain is often described as burning pain. If you do not have pain it is probably not herpes. I hope this is helpful.
