Is it a HSV 1 recurrence or new HSV 2?

I was diagnosed with gHSV 1 two months ago when I had my first episode. Last week I had unprotected sex with a friend. The following night (less than 24 hours later) I developed what appeared to be a small mosquito bite on the shaft of my pennis. I also experienced severe discomfort in my genitals (i.e. itching and tingling). I took Valtrex and the lession and discomfort went away in 5 days. A day after finishing my Valtrex (took 500mg three times a day for 5 days), a small red "bite" appeared and I'm getting itchiness and tingling again. Could all this be a recurrence of my HSV 1 or is it a primary episode of HSV 2? It seems very close in timing to be a recurrence of HSV 1 so I'm worried I contracted HSV 2. What is the best way to test this?
Thanks so much.

you need to be seen to find out what is going on. odds are this is something non-herpes going on.

have you talked to your friend to see when they were last tested for herpes ( if they were ever tested before )?

valtrex for recurrences is 500mg 2x/day for 3 days.

thanks, grace. I'll check with a doctor if my symptoms persist.
