Sore throat but no other symptoms=herpes?

3 days ago I french kissed someone who I've just found out is very promiscuous. He came into my work the day after we made out and I noticed a cold sore looking thing on his lip. Last night I could not get any sleep because I had the worst sore throat of my life, and it's just as bad today. I looked in a mirror at my throat and I have red bumps along the very back of my throat and my tonsils are very swollen and have a weird white-ish mucus on them. I tried to swab it away with a q-tip, and when I pulled it out there was blood on the q-tip. Could this be the result of some sort of STD? Maybe herpes? Would it be able to show up that fast, or does it take longer for something like that to come about? I have no other symptoms besides the bumps and extremely sore throat, which is why I don't think it's just a cold. I would have thought it was possibly strep throat, but the bumps on the back of my throat made me kind of nervous. Any help is appreciated!

this isn't std related. see your provider to get tested for strep throat.
