Possible of herpes

Thank you for your comments first of all.
I had a relationship with a girl who had tested positive for herpes, contracted prior to our relationship. We have had sex over 11 weeks ago and the condom broke, for less than 10 seconds. I quickly ran to the bathroom and disinfected the area scared of infection. However, every other time before and after had been protected sex ending with me washing my whole pelvis and genitalia region vigorously with soap for minutes.

It has been 5 weeks since i have had sex with her in general. I looked down today and saw a pimple on my penis shaft. One pimple, with a white head, so i instinctively popped it. very little Pus came out,along with even less blood (pimple was very small).

I have obviously been scouring the internet for help, could anyone tell me the possibilities of me contracting herpes

We broke up 5 weeks ago and I have had sex with others, they have not experienced any signs of herpes either.

please help

washing up after sex doesn't do anything to reduce your risk of a std, it only helps to make you smell better.

the odds of you contracting genital herpes from a few encounters is very low in general.

your symptoms do not sound like herpes. since you popped it, not too much you can do at this point. should it reoccur, be seen again and get it looked at.

if you are concerned that you contracted herpes from this partner, wait 3 months after the last time you had sex with this partner and get a type specific herpes igg blood test to see what your status is.

Its probably just a pimple. I am going through the same thing but from what I know about it there blisters and its itchy. If you have not been itchy down there its prob not herpes just a pimple or Fordyce spots
