I think that I may have genital herpes and I was just wondering if it is normal to experience a mild fever and sore throat from it? If it is how long does the fever and sore throat usually last?

I found a small bump on the shaft of my penis two years ago, but I have never been with anyone. Then a week ago, after watching a TV show, I grew paranoid that maybe I had genital herpes. I don’t recall having any symptoms, like cold sores anywhere on my penis. I’ve had genital itching from time to time. I’ve masturbated, but that’s about it. Am I being really paranoid? SERIOUS ANSWERS PLEASE.

We just found out that a co-worker has genital herpes, and though we do not want to treat her any different, we are worried that we all share the same bathroom(which only has one stall) We don’t want to be stupid about this either and say something that will make her feel uncomfartable, but we all have kids and partners that would not be too happy if we come home with an STD. (also one of the girls in the office is pregnant) So my question is can genital herpes be passed on by any other ways other than sexual contact? Please only give us seroius answers. We feel that this is an important and extremely serious matter. Thank you for your answers.
