18 months ago I had a single encounter with a stripper. We had a private dance, which proceeded into her manually stimulating my penis. Majority of the lubrication used was saliva, although she did touch herself a few times to use her vaginal fluid for lubrications. I never ejaculated and left roughly 15 mins later. I couldn’t see whether or not she had any obvious blisters. I do distinctly remember her touching her self (not very deep, with only one finger) and putting it almost immediately near my urethral opening
For the past 18 months I have had a few symptoms and been to numerous doctors. I had a full std panel done 4 days post exposure including hsv1-2 igg test all came back negative. Roughly 3-4 weeks post exposure I had a few troubling symptoms, urethral irritation, penis skin seems to have changed permanently (more dried out and easily irritated post masturbation or sexual activity). At 4 weeks I went to doctor again and was told likely irritation tested for uti and all bacterial stds and came up clean. I tried to put this behind me as I know that the exposure generally is low risk however my symptoms persist. Essentially anytime I have sex with my wife or masturbate frequently there becomes a reddish/pink rash around my urethral opening (no blisters, doesn’t hurt to touch) and for a day or so I get mild irritation when peeing, the redness typically disappears in 3-4 days, however I inspect it several times a day. My glans becomes extremely red whenever I get and erection, with small red bumps, that disappears after the erection subsides. I have tried various creams (including hydrocortisone) which I feel may have permanently affected my glans penis. Most recently my wife has what is being diagnosed as a uti a few days after intercourse however she is not responding to antibiotics but still has elevated wbc. Can herpes cause elevated wbc in urine? My fear is that I have gotten hsv1 or 2 from the exposure and it is showing as atypical and I gave it to wife

Your experience does not present a risk for the acquisition of genital herpes. Period. Your IgG testing was done too soon for detection of infection from that encounter but it did give you a baseline value, which was negative. I don’t believe at all that what your wife is experiencing as a UTI has anything to do with your experience. Given what COULD have happened during that encounter, I think you did a really good job of keeping things safe. Do you often have visits with strippers? If not, then I think what might be happening here is an over-observation of your genital area, noticing every little change. This encounter simply did not put you at risk of any STI

You are not at any real risk of getting HSV 1 from saliva or HSV 2 from the vaginal fluid. Any hands to genital activity is not a risk for acquisition of herpes, experts agree, as so much virus is lost in the process on hands. I think your anxiety and guilt are causing you to notice things you never would have noticed had you not had this experience. And yes, I’ve seen that many times before. Normally, people aren’t focusing quite so intently on their genitals, right, looking for any tiny change?

I don’t really understand your reference to the physical changes that have happened. Yes, you should be careful that your checking isn’t making things worse.
