retest or not...

i had sex with many csw before 3 months..unprotected oral and protected vaginal in india..i got redness and soreness on my penice tip..i went to dr ..he asked me to test for hiv.the test came non reactive..and urine test also normal..i was in very much fear...i asked dr what is this he said it is just a infection he gave me antibiotics the redness was healed after 15 days of antibiotic...then i went to another dr he told me to test again after 5 months.i was in very much fear so i decided to test from a private lab combo test.the test came back non reactive index value 0.45..and one dr told me the infection i had on penice tip was balantis..

i had a condum burst one time with csw before 4 months..
i just want to ask do i need any testing my test was non reactive after penice infection..can this infection occur due to hiv..?
if the penice infection was because of hiv test why i tested non reactive...?
i have hot rashes in my groin and they reoccur again n again...?

sir pls guide me what to do..my last test was after 3 months of exposure...and index value is disturbing me verymuch..pls help..
