A member asked:
I have a small red spot on my vulva. it is painless, itchless and not irritated. could something like this be herpes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful: Most small red dots on the vulva are not HSV. Herpes can start as a small red dot but it will usually change into a blister or an ulcer and is usually associated with itching and pain. The only way to diagnose this would be an exam.
