Brief Answer:
Please see the detailed answer below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello! I have been through your question.

Related your concern and based on your history (unprotected oral sex) I think maybe this could be just a simple pimple (pustule) but is better to exclude first syphilis and HSV 2 doing RPR-VDRL and TPHA test and HSV 2 IgG.

Furthermore please kindly can you attache a picture to define better the diagnosis.

I hope my answer helps you.
Feel free to ask me further.
Regards.
