Is this Genital Herpes?

Hi All,

Request your help with my query.

I had a body to body massage in a U.K. Massage parlor. The genital (unprotected) contact was only for couple of seconds. 4 weeks after the exposure, I tested for Syphillis, HSV 1 and 2, HIV and Hep c and B. All came back negative.

At above 5 weeks, I got 2-3 bumps in my genital area. The site has pus in it... once the pus came out the bump turned pinkish and it is still there. It has been over a week now.

The bumps don't pain nor I have any itching. They are just dark pink bump sitting there.

Is this Herpes? I know that I need to get tested at 3 months, but just wanted to check and see if anyone has any inputs on my query.

Thanks Dave for your response.

Now the bumps seems to have settled down. But the area where I had bumps had some rash now which is turned brown. It will itch for 10 seconds when I touch it and then the itching stops.

Does any of this itching, brown rash sounds like herpes?

Please reply.
No it doesn't.
