Burning lips

Hello all . 2 months ago i went to a csw and had protected sex. I never kissed her but i used a towel at her place after i took a bath which was already damp . After a week i had a blister on my lip which was very painful and didnt heal until 2 weeks i had a single lymph node under my jaw which was aching .i went to a doc and he gave me a cortisone cream .but my lip cant seem to heal it keeps burning and if i stop using medicine its surface gets badly damaged .its been 2 month now and some new lymph nodes on my neck have arrived which ache a bit .im worried what shud i do .does this sound like a herpes outbreak ?kindly guide me in this regard.

If you have oral hsv1 (cold sores ) then you have it. The csw can't give you what you already have or make it worse for that matter.

You didn't get oral hsv from protected sex or using the towel. Your lips were not exposed.  I would revisit the Dr and get it looked at again. If it was a cold sore my bet would be you've had the infection for a long time. The fact that all this has hung  so long doesn't suggest oral hsv1
