Herpes in nose or just big pimple?

Hi everyone. I had oral sex with my girlfriend of about two months. We preformed oral on each other about a month ago. She does have HSV-1 which 60% of america has so no big deal through now i know that HSV-1 can in fact get on your penis. Well past couple days the inside of my nose started to really hurt then I noticed a large red bump forming. So I put some pimple creme on it thinking it would go away but then yesterday it came to a huge white/yellowish head about half the size of a dime and it wouldnt pop. Finally it popped last night and today it feels much better but its crusted over. Now I know pimples crust over too but does this sound like HSV-2 on my nose? I do not have any signs on my lips, or penis and i have no fever or swollen lymph nodes.  Please someone give me some advice!
