Brief Answer:
Primary evaluation for STD
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Is it unprotected sexual intercourse?
With this history and the symptoms complained I suggest for primary evaluation for STD and HIV for all my patients.
You do not show up other features like body pain, fever and penile discharge. However the I suggest to undergo the following
VDRL
Urine microscopy
Swab from the urethra
CBC
ESR
Let me know the results

Brief Answer:
HIV test is not required now
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Please wait for HIV test. ARV (Acute retroviral infection) does not present with bumps and rash. So you may wait for one month after exposure and get ELISA for HIV

DEAR SIR
LAB REPORTS are attached
Brief Answer:
Non worrisome
Detailed Answer:
Hi
The labs are clear that you do not carry any infection now. The bumps and rash are just incidental finding on your careful notice. They should disappear on their own.
Be sure to test for ELISA for HIV after one month. Most likely it would be non reactive but to complete the testing.
