Where will herpes appear ?

Hi
Sorry about this but I have a question. I had sex with a CSW. I used a condom.
If she had herpes, and the condom was used would herpes apear on my shaft ? Considering it was covered?

Not sure if herpes appears at point of infection?
CSW says she never had herpes out breaks and I do understand that does not mean she is not infected.

What is the chance I was infected considering i used a condom and this was my first time with a person out my relationship.
It's been 15 days since the sexy act.
Thanks

Yes. Most likely it would appear at the point of infection. Your single condom protected encounter is of little to no concern. The odds you would contract hsv from this is extremely low. In other words as you needn't worry about hsv from this.
