Herpes or just a rash?

About 2 hours after having sex I developed this rash on my inner thighs. At first I just thought it was a rash from all the rubbing against one another because I do have sensitive skin and normal get rashes on my bikini area. I've never seen this after sex before. It doesn't hurt and it doesn't itch I just can't tell what they are exactly because they seem to be lasting for almost a week now and I've just never seen anything like this. I'm frightened that they could be herpes and I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure this out. They are raised red bumps and they cover both of my inner thigh but no where else. I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me out and would be more than willing to post a picture if necessary. Thank you

Hi, for a new infection from herpes, sores dont develop that soon but on average one week later and it would not appear as an outbreak from an old infection as the location and non-pain are not common.
