Not always, depending on where they are they could be just water blisters or from chaffing.

If the blisters are on the mouth and if they are causing you symptoms like itching, burning and or tingling then it could be oral herpes.

If they are on the genitals and if you have been having intercourse or receiving oral sex then you may want to get it checked out by a doctor to be on the safe side.
