A painful blister sounds like herpes, you probably have HSV-1 genitally but the only way to know for sure is to get a type-specific herpes blood test and only look at your IgG results. The only reason to be worried about contracting HIV when it comes to herpes is if you're having unprotected sex while having open blisters as it would be easier for the virus to enter through them.
