I recently had an encounter with somebody who I might suspect to have herpes, although not positive. Our genital's bearly touched maby for only a few secends. As of now (4 days later) there are not any signs expect for an emtremly small red  bump which im worried about. I would like to know if its possible that the bump is a herpe soar?

If the red bump started as tingling in that area, then itchiness, then finally a clear, sore feeling, blister appeared, you may have herpes. Many herpes "outbreaks" start off with flu like aches in the legs and thigh area and you may even feel sick with chills and fever. Then there will be itching and then a blister or blisters develop. The blister(s) will be clear, filled with a little fluid and will feel sore but will be mostly sore when they pop, then they will look like a small crater. Hopefully your red bump is nothing, but if it sounds like anything I described, go to the doctor. Good luck and be more careful, don't have unprotected encounters of any kind.

Just watch it a few more days, if it doesn't go away or if it changes in any way, see a doctor and don't be scared, good luck!
