Since you never had a risk, there is no reason to post anything to look at. Whatever is going on has NOTHING to do with HIV. No risk means it couldn't have anything to do with hiv.

Was intercourse protected or unprotected?

A rash on your neck is NOT a symptom of HIV infection.

I wore a condom, but the ring was cut from the rest of the condom at the top, also due to shaving pubic area 2 days before the sex i might have had small wound on pubic area
None of that matters.  HIV doesn't enter through other areas on your groin or on your penis.  HIV enters through the urethra (the head of your penis) ONLY when it is uncovered during anal or vaginal intercourse.

You did not have any risk for HIV and you do not need to test.  If you are having medical issues, you should see a doctor, but the medical issues are NOT caused by HIV.
