Is HSV from hand to genital contact possible?

Hello, I'm new here. I got a massage on the weekend, and without any notice, the masseuse started tugging.. Now I'm worried. What is the possibility of contracting genital HSV this way?
One day later, I'm having an irritated spot right on the tip of the penis head, almost like coming out of the urethra. Would HSV appear this fast? I washed with apple cider vinegar, so maybe that's what irritated it. Thanks for the help!
