Welcome to healthcaremagic.com. Sorry about the misfortune. I would have yourself tested, yes, you can get an infection from having sex with a person with an open wound on the penis. I am surprised that he hadn't noticed this is the first place, there are a few diseases like syphilis that will not hurt despite having an open wound, of course anything could be causing the infection, for your own health it would be nice to have yourself checked out because you will have to do this anyway irrespective of what they find or don't find from his testing. I hope this helps, goo luck. Thanks
