Link between balantitis and herpes

I was hoping someone could clear up the link between balantits and herpes for me please.

If I was to catch herpes 4 weeks ago is it possible for me to show signs of balantitis (redness around. Urethra and a few red spots) without it turning into herpes? Or does one of the conditions follow the other?

female is the default gender. You can change it in your profile.

If you had contracted herpes a month ago, you would've had obvious symptoms by now if you were going to present with them. Your symptoms do not sound at all like herpes.
