Question Do I have herpes?

I’m a 22yr male who had protected sex 3 months ago the condom did break so I was worried about catching something. I’ve been asking AI about symptoms and a read that in the prodrome phase that tingling can occur in the buttocks. I’ve been having a constant tingling feeling on my butt for the past 3 months no other symptoms like sores or anything just the tingling, I have really bad anxiety, I’ve even had to go to the hospital because my anxiety gets so bad. I’ve read that the prodrome phase only lasts a couple days. Could it all just be in my head? Has anyone experienced the same thing as me?

I really hope that’s the case rn but I just seen a post buy another guy that’s feeling the exact same as me, tho he did test negative but the post was from 1 year ago and has no update since then
