Possible syphilis exposure from oral

I received oral sex from a woman a little over a week ago.  Now I have a little sore on my scrotum which may or may not be related (and yes, she did hit that spot, more or less), and it appeared about 6 or 7 days later.  It's not red, it does not look like any pictures I've seen.  It does not look like a crater.  It may just be ripped open skin, but it does feel kind of hard (perhaps I'm just feeling the sore itself and confusing it with how hard a chancre is supposed to feel — I have no point of reference so far, thankfully).

As a side note, my scrotum has a white area that appears to be dry and cracks very easily.  This spot is on there, so I'm wondering if it is related and I'm freaking out unnecessarily.

Probably not syphilis...because it is rare in women, rare in developed countries and would not get the canker this soon.

Hi Vance.

Thanks for the reply.  It does have me feeling better about what it might be.  It is still there.  It's small.  Only bleeds if I pick at it or squeeze it (I know, why can't I just leave it alone).

I also have gotten cold sores on my lips since I'm a teenager, and possibly younger, so this single thing does not strike me as herpes.  

Honestly, it originally looked like a little bump.  So, I squeezed it, the skin broke open, and I think this thing is self-induced.  But, with all the sites suggesting syphilis is a great imitator, it just has me worried.  If this thing persists beyond a week or 2 (with me NOT touching, squeezing, preventing it from healing), I'll pursue testing to put my fears to rest (or catch something potential).

I feel like I need to post, because it helps with the anxiety.  Needless to say, even though it looked smaller to me over the last couple days, it was still tender to the touch and hurt only when touched.  Of course, I kept feeling it to see if it felt hard and oval-shaped, since that's what a chancre is supposed to look and feel like.  The center looked white/gray - nothing like any picture I could find on the web.  

Secondly, I feared possible herpes, but generally, herpes appears in clusters.  This does not hurt like, or look like, and cold sore I've had throughout my life.  Also, one of the doctors on here, HHH, suggests it's difficult to acquire a NEW infection of HSV1 elsewhere if you have antibodies and the likelihood of catching HSV2 orally is equally unlikely.

Lastly, I read another site that said if you squeeze it and clear fluid pops out, it may be herpes.  Well, I'm no stranger to squeezing zit-like things on my scrotum, so.... against my better judgment, I squeezed this thing extremely tight to see what would come out.  Happily, a stringy puss came out, with some stuck in there that I had to pull out.  After all that came out, then it bled.  While this is not a herpes forum, if this had been herpes, I'd have been screaming from the pressure I put on it.

Since this is the STD forum, is it safe to assume that no syphilis chancre would be shooting out a stringy line of puss in the manner that other zit-like things do?

Well, I was at the doctor's this past weekend.  He did suggest that doing a syphilis test this early would be inconclusive, but looking at the sore, he did NOT suspect syphilis or herpes.  He said it looked more like an irritated abrasion.  As I mentioned in my first post, I happened to notice something very early (5 or 6 days) and squeezed it and irritated/broke the skin.

Yes, the sore is still there, though it's so light now, it should disappear any time.  I keep telling myself that it probably would have healed days ago if I had just left it alone.  But, as of Friday, I squeezed it and got a lot of stringy pus out of it, renewing the openness of it.  Nothing I have read about chancres suggests you can squeeze them in that manner.
