Will The Sore Scrotum And Rectum Be Due To Fungal Infection?

I had sex on Friday night with a condom, woke up today and had sore scrotum n rectum. Went to doctor who says it is a fungal thing, had blood & ursine tests for herpes etc.... Negative! But how likely is it that it is fungal and not herpes??? I am soooo scared! In Tanzania!!
