Slight Discomfort after Urination

[Wonderin11]

I had protected sex with a woman 3 days ago and have since experience a slight burning only at the tip of my penis. About 2 minutes of the sex was unprotected but as far as she told me she had no sexual health issues. It does not burn during urination but afterwards  it is uncomfortable.  I am very concerned this could be herpes after reasearching this is a common early symptom however I feel I am overreacting because it could easily be anything from GC to Soap Irritation to Herpes. any advice on what the cause may be and if it did turn into herpes when would I expect any redness or bumps to appear? Its been 3 days so far..

Thanks

Thanks very much for the feedback. It has been about 6 days now and the symptoms have gone away. The burning is pretty much gone and I have no had fever, very bad itching, burning etc or Any visible lesions. I feel most of the symptoms I thought I had were mostly Pyschological and caused by Anxiety over the whole topic. If anything takes a turn for the worse I'll be sure to update. But again thanks for the Dr's and the forums for the emotional support and expertise!!

Hi,
By now, the lesions should have appeared and thus I don’t think its herpes. It could possibly be due to some allergy to the condom or spermicide jelly if they have been used. I’ll suggest you to drink plenty of fluids and hopefully everything should be okay. If it continues, then getting a urine examination done may help. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
