I think i have herpes

Okay im freaked out.. i have a few symptoms of herpes. First off it DON'T burn when i urinate, No loss of appetite. No penis discharge. I had unprotected sex last week. exactly 7 days ago, the bumps on my penis are small , white on the ridge of my penis head. Few red on the actual head. The thing is i can touch them with zero pain. I can squeeze the head of my penis, with my fingers on the bumps with zero pain other then the normal from squeezing.
I'm obviously terrified and i want some answers. Thanks for your time.

these aren't likely to be herpes from your description of symptoms.

since it was a week ago that you had unprotected sex, you can be tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea now when you are seen. You will need to wait to have syphilis, herpes and hiv testing done to fully cover your bases if you are concerned about this partner.

That they don't hurt is good.  That you didn't feel them coming is also good.

Let's us know how that visit went.

It says on your profile your 16.  

I don't know the laws in AB; get adult to take you to a clinic just in case.  You can have the bumps swabbed for herpes.   I'd hate for you to go to a clinic and have a nurse tell you its herpes just by sight.   You need a physician to swab it, culture it before anything can be said about it.    

One thing to look for is for blistering.   Let's just hope that the red ones will go away.  Hang in there k.    Visit the herpes forum, as this is one STD I am not very well versed on.   The reason I know the symptoms so well is because I have oral herpes.   Good luck.

Also make sure you get the HSV-1 and 2 test, and talk to someone who knows their STDs well.

The bumps usually hurt to the touch and are uncomfortable even when not touching them.

Are they in clusters, because herpes bumps usually forms in clusters.   Also Did you get a high fever or anything like that recently?  Finally even before any visible sings of the bumps you would have felt something coming on like a when a pimple is about to form.
