A little concerned

I had sex with my girlfriend the other night. I wore a condom for both oral and vaginal sex.  A day later I noticed what looks like is a pimple on the foreskin of my penis, small with a whitehead.  I am circumsized. I got home from work and we went out for the night so there was a missed shower that day.  I was wondering if this could be an irriatation from the condom, a genital wart, or just a simple pimple?  Also, we have been together for two years so don't think any sleeping around going on.

A newly acquired herpes infection will not show up that quickly.  the odds of contracting herpes from a partner that you have both protected oral and protected vaginal sex with is very low too. odds really are that this isn't herpes related.

If you are concerned or this gets worse, by all means take advantage of the excellent health care out your way and be seen :)

Hey man, I assume you think it might be herpes if your posting here. I've only been diagnosed with HSV-2 for 3 months but the doctor said I may have had it for years and not known it. My first outbreak looked like 3 pimples right next to eachother. No pain, no itching or anything. They later broke open and healed in like a week or so. You've probably read some pretty horrible stuff like I did online but your symptoms though they will be similiar, still can be very different. My advise, just go get it checked out. Tell the doctor your concerns and don't be shy. My first doctor visit the told me not to worry about anything - so ask questions. Good luck man.
