Please help Herpes Advice

I had unwanted and unasked for sexual contact about two weeks ago now (The person to me had an obvious rash on their back two large purple circular rashes with red bumps scattered around I said 'looks like herpes' he said it was acne,,, anyway then I was physically forced). The day after I began to get flu like symptoms lasting for four days, then at the week and a half point the following: White blister on left buttock, white blisters (2) on right shoulder, white blisters on chest (2),  white blisters on left forearm (3). All these are somewhat spaced. Three days after this a very small red dot on penis near the top base, formed into a somewhat fluid like bump that broke after two days - similiar time to the other bumps.

The buttock bump turned into a red area after the white was removed and dried up... same with forearms and shoulder and chest. The penis bump kind of just flaked off not leaving a red dot but has formed almost continually, a day after it broke again formed, broke again, formed again - nearly constant, after breaking dried circular ring is left. When the penis bump first appeared it stung so badly I jumped back. It since hasn't been painful.

I need some advice. I went to a general GP and he said folliculitis. This was before I had anything on my penis. I think when inspecting I touched one of them on my shoulder then my penis with the same finger directly after. I went to an STI clinic for testing but the bumps by then were nearly healed, nothing on my penis so no viral culture was taken. I'm in Australia at the moment they don't believe in Blood tests for Herpes... even after Assault.

These lesions all happened on the same exact day... besides the penis one. Penis still stings a bit but maybe anxiety related and a bit red,I have also been having clear discharge leaking from the penis. Yet to had been tested for any sti's at all because they said oh you're taking doxycycline no need for urine testing! A bit frustrated. Please help. I'll attach some photos I'm not sure if the penis one can stay up long... (bc of the rules).

Thank you very much for advise.

The bumps that are on your forearms and shoulders..etc are not hsv. The virus does not infect the body like that. I doubt the one on the penis was either. If a new sore pops up have it swabbed and if no more show up get an igg bloodtest at twelve weeks past the exposure.
All that being said I am very sorry this happened to you and you may want to get the authorities involved. Again I doubt hsv is the cause of all of this
