Chances of getting herpes?

I had unprotected vaginal and oral sex about 17 days ago. I tested negative for gono and chlamidya. It was only one encounter and not ongoing. She did not seem to have any lesions or sores.

Hello again feelingundone it's now been 22 days and something has appeared by my mouth, it doesn't look to have anything in it (pus,etc.) I have no idea if it is herpes, acne, or something else. Should there be other symptoms if it is herpes?

If your partner did have hsv your chances are roughly 1 in a 1000. Odds are your partner doesn't have hsv but as you can see the odds are clearly on your favor if  they did.
That being said 17 days post exposure and no symptoms is a great sign. 99% of outbreaks would've taken place by now so you can be confident your fine

It looks like a rash and some yellow skin/fluid at the corner of my mouth and it's dry. It could be just my paranoia
