Noticed Itchy Red Spots On Upper Left Thigh. Noticed Peeling And Painful. Turning Darker. Herpes Negative. Help?

Good day..I noticed an itchy red round thing in my upper left thigh yesterday morning after brisk walking. Then in the afternoon I noticed it was peeling of and painful when touched. Later that afternoon I played badminton and sweat a lot. After the game I inspected it again. I saw three to four little red round spot peeling nerd the big one I noticed earlier. And just now I inspected it again...they are flat round thing now..however I noticed that their color (red) is turning darker...I had my last oral encounter on June 8, 2013. I was tested for herpes last June 27, negative..and was tested negative for syphilis last August 8 of this year. Could this be herpes?
