warts? herpes? please help
hello,
this is an update. i would appreciate any help. i had found 3 pink spots on my penis shaft. i had put regular vinegar on them and they turned white. i had soaked cotton with apple cider vinegar and applied it to the spots with a bandaid overnight. they turned white and then darker very shortly thereafter. a day later i swam for 30 minutes in a hot tub and swimming pool (chlorinated). immeditaley after one of the spots peeled right off. like a thin scab. and this spot soon looked ulcerated with a yellowish center, kind of sunken looking. it seemed to be a result of the tub and pool. the scabby parts that are left are crumbling and everything looks to be healing. i dont know what it was. but the ulceration kind of looked like herpes. but there is no pain at all. and at this rate it all looks almost healed in just over a week. i know i possibly caused the fast timing of this with the apple cider vinegar and swimming pool.
questions:
do removed flat (or early stage) warts leave various types of healing? like yellowish/red spots? possibbly ulcerish and maybe one layer of skin deep? does a hot tub cause discolortion of sores or blood?
does it sound like warts? it sure didnt look like warts or any pictures on the internet.
can herpes ulcers be totally painless? and is it common to get painless herpes over a month later that heals quickly wth home remedy?
what other types of spots would react like this to regular vinegar and apple vinegar?
what advice would you give me?

thanks Naveed. i looked into syphillis and it looks possible. i went to the doctor today and he said probably warts but lets wait and see in a couple weeks if they come back. he didnt thnk it was herpes based on all the factors. i got tested for syphilis today so thats good.
i forgot tomention that when the spots turned white they raise up a bit and looked like little flat topped cauliflower plants.

herpes are almost always painful and never painless... i doubt those pink spots could be warts... my advice for you is to see a doctor and follow his instructions... the pictures you see on the internet are the worst cases so don't try to diagnose yourself through the internet...
