Possible infection receiving oral?

Greetings,

I'm a white male, early 30s. About a year and a half ago I received oral sex from a woman I know nothing about.

Out of paranoia I was initially tested for most stds, tests neg but was given a dose of meds to clear up any of the simple ones to take care of.

At around 2-3 months I had a herpes blood test, came back negative.

Recently after I started having severe pain when sitting. I've always had zit-like bumps on my buttocks, but none appear like what I have seen of herpes lesions. The pain was bad sitting, buttocks would get extremely red, and occasionally my urethra would be swollen, but with no pain or discharge or lesions. After around 3 months, the pain mysteriously disappeared.

About 4 months ago, it came back, this time a little more pain in urethra with swelling, but no burning or discharge. The pain is excruciating in my buttocks when sitting. Burning, feels inside of skin, sometimes anus is red, often moves to the folds beneath my cheeks as well.

It almost feels like prolonged prodome symptoms I read about here. Doctor told me he thought it was prostatitis, did a round of cipro with no relief, and now just finished a 28 day cycle of doxycycline with no relief. Going to see a urologist in a few weeks, should I be worried of herpes even though I have no obvious lesions and an early negative test?

No, this is nothing like a primary herpes infection!

I have mild pain in the urethra but as I said major pain in buttocks area.

Can hsv cause urethral pain with no lesions? Can you get contract hsv on buttocks for oral sex?

Regardless of what your herpes status is, these are not symptoms of herpes at all. There is no such thing as prolonged pro drone, definitely something else going on. I'm afraid your urologist is the next best bet!
