What Causes Bumps On Thighs After Sexual Intercourse?

About 5 weeks ago I had protected sex with a woman. It was fairly brief. About a week and a half ago I noticed a rash along my inner thighs towards my knees. I started getting anxious that it was herpes. Shortly thereafter the skin under my scrotum and in the flaps of skin to the side of my scrotum started to burn. I started getting more anxious. Nearly every waking minute I worry about herpes. Recently, my knees started burning and this morning I noticed about 6-7 red bumps on my elbows. Is this all stress or could it be herpes? I haven t seen bumps anywhere else.

This is unlikely to be herpes as Herpes causes severe burning sensation rather than a rash. So, its better if you can get the area checked by a doctor soon and get cured.
