Std risk redness on foreskin

Hi I am concerned about a possible std exposure. Currently I have a small red rash that I have had for 4 days it’s bright red on the outside end of penis it is not sore. Possible exposures I had a handjob in a massage place 11 weeks ago and then had a dance in a stripclub with touching but both fully clothed 3 weeks ago. I am wondering if this painless and not itchy redness could be anything to get checked. No other exposures have happened.
Thanks

You won't get an std from a hand job or rubbing with clothing on.  I wouldn't be worried.  The friction may have the foreskin redness but this wasn't a risk for anything. Rest easy.

It’s been there for 5-6 days now I am hoping it will go away soon. Is it concerning to be there for that long? No blisters or anything just red skin on the outside of foreskin.
It's concerning in that it's not going away, but it's not an STD based on the activities you describe here. Since you've had it this long, you should let a doctor see it. It might be a fungal infection or dermatitis or something, but only a doctor who sees it can tell you what it is. Rashes are caused by many different things, and it's impossible for us to tell you what it is.
