Herpes - very scared

Had protected oral and vaginal sex with csw. 3 days later bad backache and shooting pains down buttocks plus burning sensation on back. A few days later have very itchy penis with occasional stabbing pains. Penis looks redder than normal but no visible sores. Carries on for about a week then seemed to go away. 2 weeks later same cycle and penis appears to have very small red dots and itchy but no sores, and back/butt ache still happening as well.

Been to gp who says showing urine infection and given antibiotics and yeast cream. Been to STD clinic and all clear for usual tests but don't cover herpes.

How likely is it herpes? How can I have got an infection or Herpes on penisnhead even with a condom?

Hi, you cant contract herpes on the head using a condom so rule that out and you cant get a penis infection using a condom so rule that out as well. Im sure your body aches are from the act itself.

Its impossible to get a uti when nothing could get inside your penis.

Thanks for the quick reply. Very confused by the doc saying I have uti though, unless its STD related its one big coincidence. Hoping all stress related but struggling to be convinced :(
