ARS OR HERPES??

Hello i am 24 male heterosexual, on 14 th july i have been to an escort and we engaged in a insertive condom protected sex .. there was deep kissing ,protected oralsex and mutual mastrubation involved .. we also cudled each other when the condom was off and am sure that there was no penetration involved and i didnt finish in her and checked the condom after withdrawl ..n d condom was intact ..i did touch her vagina and touched my penis ocasinally . on 22 july i got severe sore throat and there was a visible ulcer on the inside of my left tonsil(the tonsil wasnt swollen) there is no fever,no rash  or any thing .. today i noticed few more sores on the back of the throat and on the sides of the throat(small ulcers red in colour) ...what it could be?? :(  ive got an appointment on 28th wiv the gum clinic ..  hope it isnt hiv related .. i read some where that gargling salt water wud ease the throat pain but it made it even worse .. has any one heard of pple getting sore throat and throat ulcers as an ars symptom ?? or could it be some other oral std ( we engaged in deep kissing for about 30 minutes and she usually  gives unprotected bj to all her other clients .. i was stupid enough to french kiss her :( ) wondering if i caught some thng from french kissing or is it hiv thru mutal mastrubation or while cudling did my penis touch her vagina? :( .. jus freaking out .. there is 8 day gap b/w the incident and the onset of my symptoms .. will ars occur in 8 days . i saw it takes atleast 10-14 days or does it occur as early as 8 days and what are these throat ulcers ?? i never has such bad sore throat all ma life and it looks all dry and wierd in thr ////// please helppppppp

Could be due to anything but HIV.

There's a separate forum for STD concerns here.
