Freaking Out...Is this Herpes?

Hi so I'm freaking out! I can't do anything except search for symptoms. After going through a bout of health anxiety I didn't have sex for almost two years. These past two months I've had sex with 3 different girls. Two of them I had sex with once and one of them I had sex with twice and she performed oral sex on me on two different occasions. On each of these occasions the condom broke. I slept with each of these girls only a week or two apart. 

The last time I had sex, with the girl I suspect could have given me something, was early Friday morning 4/5 days ago. On Saturday afternoon I noticed a whitish liquid Coming out of my penis. On Monday I went to see the doctor. She listened to my story but didn't inspect me. She tested me for Chlamydia, urethritis and  ghonnorea. 

After taking the medication she prescribed. I noticed a tiny little sole red bump In my pubic region about two inches from my shaft. 

Could this be herpes? I'm so afraid... I was so sure it was chlamydia but now I don't know. The bump isn't noticeably itchy or painful, maybe a tinnnny bit but still im freaking out. I've attached a picture.

      @EssenceL25 there really isn't a question mark around the source, it's your latest partner. The median time from infection to an outbreak of lesions upon initial infection is 4 days.  The only thing that isn't certain is the type I suggest.

      I asked if it was hsv 1 or 2 and the doctor said it was Hsv2. I’m not sure i just asked him when he was tested last he said this year I said I think we should go test together and he agreed . I’m going to bring it up again cause I really need to know if he gave this to me I wasn’t sure since it was so close to my previous relationship.

      @EssenceL25 then it is all beyond reasonable doubt that the current partner is the source. A 'perfect' fit in terms of timing, symptoms and swab. It may be though that the type is not technically known. Culture swabs are very often not typed and just assumed to be HSV-2 if taken from a genital location. If you received oral sex in the days leading into 7 March then it is 50/50 as to whether this is HSV-1 or HSV-2. You could contact your doctor and confirm if the swab was actually typed (which is a second test where fluorescent antibodies for HSV-1 and HSV-2 are added and see which one 'glows').  If that test wasn't done then you do not know type. If you have oral HSV-1 yourself (cold sores) then this will be HSV-2. Does your partner have oral HSV-1? It is somewhat strange for him not to rush and test - many people have a 'reaction' if they truly do not know their status and have concerns that you infected them etc. (not initially rational of course). This indicates he may know his status - or maybe he just isn't simply the sharpest tool in the shed!?

      I had flu like symptoms and ulcers on my vagina . They did a culture and I tested positive for hsv2. I asked my partner to get tested he agreed but I’m not sure if he will cause he hasn’t said anything else about it.
