Worried?

Above 5-6 weeks ago my partner and I were naked, but did not engage in oral or vaginal sex. However, i'm concerned that that his penis may of touched my vagina or anus. We did not have naked outcourse, nor did we grind our genitals against each other's. I'm just concerned that his penis may of touched my vagina.

Now 5-6 weeks later I have a sore throat and a cough. I also have cuts on my anus, but i don't know if this is due to me straining when I went to the bathroom last week or what. I had the cuts on my anus before I got a sore throat though. I already have a 3 week negative test, which i know 50% of people will test positive by.

Should I be concerned that the cuts on my anus or the sore throat are herpes related?

Hi, no you should not be worried you contracted herpes because you were not exposed. Takes much more than what you describe to get this.
