Strip club exposure

I went to the strip club yesterday. I got dances from two nude women. I was wearing a short shirt. In both instances my shirt briefly lifted up(10 seconds or less) and therye bare ass and possibly anus and genitals were rubbed on my lower abdomen and possibly waistline. In a couple hours the site began to burn and still burn the next morning I did wash my stomach with soap after the encounter and let it dry. Is this just from bacterial contact or is it herpes? Surely symptoms couldn't appear as to the next morning? Im also a virgin so there's no chance I have hsv currently. I would really hate to get herpes on my waistline over a stupid scenario.

No, there is no risk here.

The skin on your stomach is too thick for anything to penetrate. When people talk about skin to skin contact for infections like herpes, it's mouth to genitals, genitals to genitals, or genitals to anus, all unclothed.

The skin on your genitals and mouth are thinner mucus membranes and are far easier for germs to penetrate. Some infections, like gonorrhea and chlamydia, need to enter your urethra, by the opening at the end of your penis.

As you already suspect, no STD would give you symptoms this quickly. As for anything else, I can't imagine anything giving you symptoms that quickly, unless you had a reaction to the soap you used.
