48 hours exposed to herpes. Help and advice.

[Atypical23]

I had sex with a guy 2 days ago that told me that he is positive with herpes. The condom fell off twice. The downside was that I was pretty drunk when I made the brash decision to follow through with hooking up with him. I’m not sure how i feel mentally at the moment, scared, angry at myself and afraid. I haven’t gotten tested yet due to it being the weekend. I feel tingly with reoccurring pinching sensations. I feel kind of chaffed. I had razor burn prior to my encounter and noticed one pink bump appear. It looks more like an ingrown hair but I’ll hold my breath on it. The tingling sensation doesn’t stay in one spot it jumps around, it almost feels like my genitals are shivering. I have one friend that I told this about and she believes that it’s my anxiety that is triggering this response, but the downside is that I had razor burn when I had sex with him. I contacted him and asked him if he was showing any symptoms, he said no. Some of the sensations come and go, I’m keeping an eye on my groin area to make sure there isn’t anything new popping up. I’m just ridden with anxiety and scared.

Tingling associated with Herpes generally happens in the spot where bumps appear, and it doesn't 'jump around'. Also, it usually happens in subsequent OBs and not the first one. This is more consistent with anxiety.

Take a deep breath. Almost all the symptoms you describe can be due to stress and anxiety. If you are concerned about the 'bump', be seen in person by a doctor. Herpes bumps usually appear 2-14 days after the exposure. So it makes it very unlikely that the bump is Herpes. Random tingling etc, are non-specific and can be just stress and you being hypersensitive to normal variations.
