I have consulted dermatologist, he said it's " Herpes" But I have never had any sexual activity outside entire my life and my wife also never have this issue. Then how come I have got this " Herpes" He prescribed me Valcivir -1000 tablet 3 times a day. After taking 2 doses I am having headache in same area where rashes are.
Can you please tell me is it Herpes or something else?

Of course it is herpes. Sexual activity is one of the ways of getting it.
Herpes is quite painful.
There are excellent medicines in Homeopathy for herpes treatment. Post-herpes complications like pain, scar will also reduce with Homeopathy.
Consult me or a nearby homeopath.

Herpes is a contagious disease. Sexual activity is "not the only"cause of its transmission.
Have some faith in dermatologist having valid modern medicine degree. If in doubt visit him again or another one.

The lesion seems like the lesions that appear while contracting the Herpes Simplex Virus. There are various ways in which you can acquire the herpes virus a few causes are by having unprotected vaginal or anal sex, having oral sex with a person who gets cold sores, sharing sex toys, having genital contact with an infected person, etc.
