Hsv from mutual masturbation?

I know on this forum everyone say mutual masturbation is no risk but I don’t understand what is going on with my body. I engaged in mutual masturbation on December 4 2022, she touched my Venus while her hands were dry for about three seconds, I fingered her, pulled my pants up and washed it off with salt water, I fingered her a couple more times and and washed my hands off with salt water in between those times I had to pee, but I never had secretions on my hand while touching my penis. The next day while trying to sleep my penis felt very uncomfortable while trying to sleep and December 6 the burning urination started these symptoms lasted for about a week(Dec 11) and I went to the doctor and was tested for all stis and a uti and was negative but they still prescribed me antibiotics,(azithromycin, metronidazole and a 5 day course of ciproflaxcin) and I felt fine after the course of antibiotics for about 3 weeks. Fast forward January 1st I caught the flu and but two days before I caught the flu I had a slight sore throat that was bare noticeable, I went to the doctor I had a very high fever and my body felt weak, also I barely had taste (no Covid). During that time I had an ingrown hair bump that turned into a boil and that’s it. The burning urination and inflamed urethra came back back January 7  and gradually I had some burning while ejaculation, painful urination after ejaculation, groin and pubic itchiness, hemroihds and armpit lymph nodes but no lesions. The pain isn’t constant it comes and goes I tested my urine 3 times all clean, blood test and nothing so if not hsv what else?

You keep focusing on the idea "what if I have HSV2", that alone builds up your anxiety and may cause painful or frequent urination. When you are stressed or anxious or focused on your body (your penis in your case), all body manifestions are magnified by your mind. It works like that: you go to urinate, think "what if I have hsv2", imagine some blisters on your penis, expect some pain As It is the only prove you 'really have it' - and voila, you feel 'painful urination'.
Anxiety is an effective symptom producer, like in cases when people who were really afraid to catch syphilis developed characteristic rash without having the disease.
I strongly suggest you should reread all the answers you got in this thread and try to move on.
I fully agree with grobick here, especially the part about rereading all the answers.

Painful urination with hsv2 is from having sores inside the urethra. I'm not a guy, but from what I'm told, it hurts like fire - like bring you to your knees pain. You don't have that.

As I said above, your hsv2 test is likely a false positive. Read that again - it's likely a false positive. Easily, you have an 85-90% chance of that being a false positive.

Whatever is happening to you, it's not from an STD. We can't say it any other way. You had no risk.

So how can hsv2 be pass from sharing sex toys but not mutual masturbation it doesn’t make any sense?

That's in theory only, and most experts don't think herpes would ever transmit that way unless someone had an active outbreak, and even then, it would have to be an immediate transfer from one person to the other.

It's not an STD, and my guess is that your hsv2 IgG is a false positive. (Anything below a 3.5 needs to be confirmed.)

You had no risk, they way overmedicated you and without any reason, and as Gobrick said, there are many things that cause symptoms like yours that are not STDs.

Increase your water intake and decrease your caffeine and alcohol intake and see if that helps.

It doesn't sound like HSV or any other STI, since you had no risk.
Your urethral symptoms could not and were not caused by masturbation. There are lots of things that could cause urethral discomfort - overheating, anxiety, dehydration, soap irritation.
You should stop worrying about STI; your symptoms should subside.
If your symptoms persist, you should seek urologist consult, but I don't think it would be necessary.
Wish you health and good luck.
