Herpes?

3 months ago I received unprotected oral sex from a girl that appeared to not have any mouth sores. 11 weeks after that I noticed a very tiny painless red sore that appeared below the mid shaft on the penis. It did not hurt at all. The sore didnt have puss, nor a scab. i dont recall seeing a red bump or blister before the sore appeared which is the normal routine for a herpes cycle right? The sore basically closed up within 2-3 days then had a shiny white coating to cover it up but its been 13 days now and I can see the mark where it appeared.  I know herpes usually doesnt leave a mark but i was cleaning it with peroxide and that may of not caused it to scab or anything.  My lymph nodes have been hurting for the past 5 weeks but the doctor I went to said that they were normal.  I also showed the doctor a pic of it and she said it was too small for it to be herpes. It was just one sore and painless. Could I have been asymptomatic then had a mild breakout? I contacted the girl and she said she never had any mouth sores but she may be asymptomatic and was shedding... I am extremely nervous can you help me please and thanks

Grace Doctors tell me they can't do anything without any sores or lesions. So I would appreciate if you take everything onto your perspective real quick.

I Received unprotected oral on 7/31/12
Got treated for a fungal growing on my thigh on 8/27/12 and was told to go buy athletes foot cream to rub on it and it cleared but I decided to rub some on my penis also. Maybe doing that caused irritation to my penis i believe My penis texture also changed due to that. I have like tons of small looking closed cuts on penis with a new black mark and skin looks wrinkled but all doctors say its normal but they popped up right after all of this occured
I started to have Groin pain on 9/23/12
Shaft of penis was extremely itchy for 10 days oct 1st thru October 10th
One painless ulcer showed up a week later October 17th on the left side below mid shaft and healed up by the 21st. Not even quite sure it was an ulcer because skin wasn't raw or no puss or anything. Then 17 days later on November 3rd I believe I saw a little scab about a inch away from first lesion then I started digging then I caused a lesion that healed up in less then 2 days. Also I have tons of tiny bumps below mid shaft that's been present for months now and maybe those lesions were due to them I don't know where these bumps come from but there painless and still the same months later

December 9th I ran into a medal goal post playing football injuring my right hip and later that night I felt weird sensations on that side which may have caused my penis to become numb. On and off to this day I still feel those sensations but not quite as much as that first day. Feels like a flow or something comes from my stomach down to genitals and my whole body become into shock

Yesterday I had a shock type feel on penile head on left side and burning during urination. I also been feeling like hot sensations in my whole mid extremities since yesterday.

If I did catch hsv 1 from this low risk exposure would hsv1 cause 6 months worth of symptoms like this? I'm so confused and nervous i don't know what to do. Also should I start worrying about hsv2? Sorry grace but your the only one that seems to help :)

Grace was just wondering why you believe I shouldnt worry about my situation. What makes you believe I didn't contract herpes from that single oral encounter back on July 31st.
