Just curious...

I am curious if you can see similar symptoms like herpes if you excessively masturbate?  I am a 23 year old male who has never shown signs of anything std related but am curious as if I might be seeing signs of herpes or not.  I don't have a rash but I have seen small "blister" like bumps on my penis.  None of them hurt now but they did at one point, there is one however that seems kind of like an open sore, however this was the first one that appeared and the day it appeared I had masturbated 2 times (no lubricants) and had two sessions of the most intense sex I have ever experienced for an outstanding amount of time with the same female.  The next day the sore was a little bit bigger but I thought nothing of it since I had seen one of these before from simply masturbating way in the day.  However the next day after that I had masturbated at least 4 more times (including the day before) and again had sex with the same girl 2 more times for an extended period of time.  I have never ever experienced rough sex until that night and I remember it being a little bit dry (which I think could have caused more irritation).  The day after that my pelvis was still hurting from the first night but I happened to notice the blisters, the original blister looks more like a popped blister and is probably about 1 - 2 cm in diameter, however the other blisters aren't popping up like crazy there just happens to be one here and there.  I did not see any rashing or itching.  I am just curious because I cannot get to the doctor soon that I might have herpes and just wanted to either prepare myself or ease my sense of mood.  I understand the consequences of my own actions but any type of insight would be great.  Thank you in advance.

This could be anything.  You need to be seen by your provider for a proper work up.

i thought that i might also throw in the fact that it burns when I pee however I can notice a very very minuscule amount of blood in my urine, I might also add that every time I urinate it is always double streamed (which could be almost anything from a UTI to and STD to the fact that I may have messed myself up pretty bad).  I have had this problem before with the burning double-streamed urination on days that I tend to masturbate quite often so I don't think much of it, however it has never lasted more than a couple days.  It has been a total of 5 days since I had sex with this girl.
