Trying to decide if this warrants a herpes test
I’m trying to remember if this is situation happened before or after my last HSV test in October. I had a pimple on my penis. I popped it. It was basically a blackhead. I’ve gotten a zit down there before so I wasn’t anxious about that at all. I picked at it so much i turned it into a sore. I cleaned it and kept it covered with a bandaid and it healed in a blink of an eye. No other symptoms. I did have sex with the bandaid on the sore and a condom over it. By the pimple being toward the shaft, the bandaged sore slid down when I retracted the skin. The bandaid never came off. The encounter I had lasted only a few mins. Did I put myself at risk? Does it even matter if I’m still not showing any signs or symptoms of HSV?
