Initial Herpes Outbreak without lesions! Please Help!!
Hello, I'm a 24 y/o male. On the 29th Sept. (11 days back) I happened a visit a CSW where I was involved in mutual masturbation using a condom. There was no sex involved but a lot of hugging and touching and kissing (not french kissing).
My symptoms right now are that I have about 8 canker sores in my mouth after this encounter They are quite painful. Other than that, I do not have any other illness or discomfort. Everything's about normal. Could this be herpes?
My encounter was that there was kissing (mostly closed mouth) on the lips and the neck area. I might have wet kissed about two times but that was on the neck. There was some brief biting involved. I remember her biting me around my lip towards the end.
Also, I did not notice any sores around her mouth at the time. But I'm aware of asymptomatic shedding as well. What are the chances?
Another thing, I had changed my toothpaste before this encounter (from a herbal to a regular chemical one). This has triggered multiple sores in my mouth in the past. Or is it some sort of of allergy/reaction to food consumed?
It is really worrying me.
The sores appeared in sequence in about a week from the encounter which fits for the timing of an initial outbreak. I'm very confused at the moment. Feeling bad and guilty of my actions. I've learned my lesson here it seems.
From reading the posts on this forum, I have decided to get tested in 3-4 months. I would like to know which test is appropriate from here.
Please try and answer asap. I am worried.
I thank the community in advance for the helpful service.
Thank You

What you describe has almost 0% risk for any STDs. It does not sound like herpes at all.
Sorry thelearningcurve I only now just saw your response. Yes you have 0% risk of any std. If I were a betting man I would be willing to bet all my life's savings on that fact. I would probably make a lot of money from it too.
Masturbation is no risk and if she did not have any lip sores at the time your risk would be close to zero for oral herpes from kissing. First time outbreaks would be on your lips not inside your mouth. Most likely as before, from the toothpaste.
These is no such thing as initial outbreak with out lesions as lesions are the initual outbreak.

Thanks for the reply.
But can't it possibly be oral HSV? I've read a few posts where an initial outbreak was without lesions. Is there a possibility of that or should I consider myself safe?
