HSV Transmission between multiples

Hello everyone. I'm on day 3 now and currently having an all out meltdown about questions I can't find answered on the internet. Here's the story:

I'm in Italy on vacation. I got drunk in a bar and went to a second bar with some girls I had met that night from London. I came back to my apartment earlier than anyone else. One of the girls called me to see if I could help her get home. She came to my apartment and we had unprotected sex and she performed oral on me for about 10-15 seconds. I know. I'm stupid and I feel horrible. I asked her if she ever had any diseases and she said no.

However, she did tell me she performed oral on an Italian guy in the bar bathroom that night. This is where I'm melting down.

What are my chances of contracting herpes? Is it possible to transfer from one person to the next that quickly?

My lower lip has been itching since yesterday, day 2. And there is a small red rash on it. I check my genitals almost every 30 minutes. I can't enjoy myself. I feel ruined. Any help would be appreciated.

Very little risk and i wouldn't let it ruin your vacation. Just fill your pocket with condoms. Lol

Again, thank you for your insight. It's already ruined a large part of my vacation but this has taken a little stress away.

These types of encounters are high risk for std's. Obviously this is a regular occurrence for her. Even though these are considered higher risk encounters the risk for hsv is still very very low. 1 in a 1000 if she has hsv. Now the risk is greater for bacterial std's like chylmidia,NGU,gonnerrhia and trich.
You can test for these with a simple urine test anytime after 3 days from exposure. Hsv you would need to wait at least 8 weeks and 12 being conclusive. All in all i wouldn't bw worried about ghsv unless lesions form. Tbis can take 4-14 days and in very rare cases out to 20 days

I've been awaiting your response. I'm not as worried about other STDs because I'm on doxycycline for Malaria prevention. I'm mainly worried about HSV. Thank you very much for taking a little stress away.
