slight redness, minimal peeling

I had less than protected sex and within 24 hours (maybe a tiny bit more) developed something that looked like a bruise, right at the edge of my penis. It looks a bit like a scar you would get from a zipper injury. The skin in the area is peeling a little. The situation persists for 2 weeks now, no changes. Any clue?

No I have not heard of an STD doing that. If it was herpes or syphilis you would see a sore and things like gonorrhea and chlymida would give a burning while urinating or discharge.

And STD's do not show symptoms in less then 2 days and that is for gonorrhea.

Thanks! Less then protected (in this case) is not protected. There is no pain and no secretions though... Any ideas?
