Chancre at Belt Line
I received unprotected oral from a woman about 5 weeks ago. Over the last few weeks my testicles have been a little sore and it felt like there was a little swelling in my groin (Chlamydia/Ghonorrhea came back negtive). Today I noticed what looks like a pimple on my belt line. Is it possible and or likely it's a syphilis chancre? It seems from what I've read that it would be on my genitals where the infection entered.

No, it wouldn't be at the belt line.
Good luck at the doc's, and let us know.

So it wouldn't be at the belt line. I will get is checked out, just freaking a little bit as the behavior leading to this was not something I do.

You are right - you would get the sore at the point of infection.
It could be a pimple, an infected hair follicle, molluscum - you need to get it checked to be sure.
