Red Rashes on my penile head and shaft. Help anyone?

Hey!

I've developed Red Rashes on my Penile head and shaft. They aren't itchy or causing burning sensation. I had unprotected sex about 2 days ago. The rashes developed today. I had washed my penis with Hot Water ( Not Lukewarm ) and bath soap on the same day. Can you help me with this?

I'm a bit worried about them. Should I get the STD panel tests done right away or wait for few days just to see if it was some kind of allergic reaction due to hot war and soap?

Thank you for the help!

If you have had unprotected sex, you should get STD testing done.  It's possible the red rash is just from irritation from the water or even friction from sex- but since your encounter was unprotected, you should get tested.
