STD?

Hi all,

About 4 months ago, I had unprotected sex with a girl on a one night stand (Very Stupid!). After I had a tingle in the tip of my penis, which went away. I proceeded to get tested at the local clinic about 7/8 weeks after the sexual contact. The tests included Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, HIV and Syphilis. All came back negative.

I then began seeing my ex girlfriend a couple of months ago, and shortly after I noticed that my foreskin became red and began to peel. Reading online, I it sounded like thrush, so I used canestan cream on it and it cleared up after a couple of weeks.
Then a couple of weeks ago, I felt my groin crease (where the groin meets the thigh) becoming itchy and have a slight burning sensation. This was on both of my groins. There were a couple of red spots at the area's. This calmed down, but now on one side there is a bigger spot which looks inflamed (could be down to me constantly looking at this area). I have not had swollen glands, flu like symptoms, open sores etc.

I have a doctors appointment Monday so will hopefully get it sorted the, but would value some opinions beforehand. Does this sound like Herpes, any other STD, or does it sound like something like Jock Itch?

Thanks

Would Herpes have affected my penis rather than my groin area? And would the infection have materialised before now?

Does not sound like a STD. Herpes questions post in that forum. Jock itch probably best guess at what it is.
