is it herpes?

This is kind of a long story so i apologize. about 2 and a half months ago i had sex, and for a brief time during this i was unprotected.  I had sex for at least two hours, and also had oral sex in which she used her teeth and hands.  about 4 days after this, i noticed small red spots on the head of my penis.  I figured this was irritation from oral sex as this girl used her teeth alot.  then i started feeling a minor itch around my testicles (in between my thigh and my scrotum, underneath the scrotum, and the area above the penis).  The day after i started feeling these symptoms I went to a doctor and got tested for clymedea, gonorrhea, and syphilis.  The doctor said it was probably yeast infection and not herpes so i was given one pill to treat it.  Over the next couple days, though maybe it was because of anxiety, i felt minor pain in my back and did not have much of an appetite and the itching persisted while the red spots began to fade.  I went back to the doctor about 5 days after the initial visit, and this time she said it was jock itch and gave me some cream (micatin).  Over the next couple weeks i used this cream and then lamisil.  I saw very slight improvement.  Then about 4 weeks after the initial intercourse, i had sex with the same girl, this time wearing a condom throughout. about 4-5 days after this, i began feeling a slight sting on my penis, especially after urination and the minor itch persisted.  About a week after the sex, i went to another doctor and got tested again for the same stds and also HIV.  This doctor also said it wasnt herpes and gave me a stronger anti-fungal cream.  This helped, but not completely.  On the head of my penis there was some redness, but no irritaion really.  Over the next couple weeks the stinging subsided and the redness faded and i have not have sex recently.  However, i would get a very minor itch every now and then.  Now over the past week or so ive been masturbating pretty frequently and today the stinging has returned and now i feel some very minor back pain (although again, i just might be freaking myself out).  Is this simply irritation or something or could it be herpes?

It's 100% NOT herpes. Nothing you have said suggests it at all.. You staring at your penis everyday and looking around the internet if giving you your symptoms. You're problem is anxiety.. You don't have herpes..
