I had sex with my partner yesterday and because the light was off he asked me what was on my thighs and there was blood everywhere and im worried it's my herpes recurring? ?

There would normally be other symptoms which would indicate a flare up of Herpes, I would seriously suggest that you call the NHS Helpline who can give you more specific advise and will know what to ask, failing that you could call your GP and ask for a telephone consultation as they will know your medical history.
