Do I have Strep or an STD/STI

About 5 days ago I preformed oral sex on a guy, and this morning I woke up with a painful throat and white pus patches on my tonsils. Im just worried that I could of contracted an std/sti. Could I contract any disease in 5 days or is it most likely strep? Im just worried because this is the first time anything like this has happened. If anyone could let me know that would be great.

Thank you!

Sounds far more like strep than hsv. Hsv usually effects the lips nose area. It's far more rare to have lesions inside the mouth. Go see your dr and get on some antibiotics
