Worried about herpes

Hi

Around 10 days to 2 weeks back I visited a couple of escorts and had protected sex . 2 days after I visited the 2 nd escort I have a feeling of being unwell. I have sores in my mouth headache and strange feeling in my stomach. Also for the last 4 days I have a bump on the shaft below the head of my penis and it has started itching a lot. I suspect it is herpes. Am worried of having caught herpes, what do I do now?

you never ever have to treat herpes if you don't want to.

if you have active symptoms, you should be seen to find out what they are. I certainly wouldn't assume genital herpes - get checked out!

I got tested recently and the tests came positive for hsv 1. The igg count is 5.2
Hsv 2 came negative.  Strangely I have bumps on my penis. Do I need to
Visit the doctor and seek medication for this . What are the consequences of seeking no medication, anyways I heard no medication does not help.
I am feeling a bit tired with occasional headaches and bumps in my penis.
