In mid-October of 2007 I had sex with a female partner. Two weeks ago, one of my friends who had been seeing this girl told me that she confessed to him that she has HSV-1 genitally which she got a year prior from receiving oral sex. I began to think back to that night and remembered that approximately 4 days after we had intercourse I noticed a red painful rash in my left groin. I had the rash examined and the doctor said it was no big deal, just put some hydrocortizone cream on it and it will go away. However, after what I have been reading, I am concerned it may be genital HSV-1. Now in late-April, six months after our one night stand, the rash is still visible in my groin but has faded to a light purple. It is about 1/4 inch in width and about 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches in lenght, starting on the skin under the scrotum and extended slightly down my left thigh. I do play sports and lift weights and am constantly wearing under armour tights so I am hopeful that the rash is just a long standing jock itch. Also from what I have read, it seems that if it was herpes there would have been blisters and it would have healed over by now. I did wear a condom that night, and if she is telling the truth, she was on medication for herpes at the time we had sex. Also I have read it is more difficult to transfer HSV-1 from genital to genital. However, I am skeptical on the matter and wanted to know what is the likelihood that this was in fact a genital HSV-1 outbreak? Any insight on the matter would be greatly appreciated and could help ease my anxiety. Thank you.
