I had protected sex with a girl and I think she may have had herpes and I'm starting to get a bit concerned. This looks different than most pictures of herpes, but i'm no expert. What do you think this is? This happened about 3 days ago and I'm just a bit anxious about things. The tip of my penis feels a bit tingly, but I honestly think it may just be my nerves. Any advice is welcome.

Anyway, if you have had cold sores previously and should these vaginal bumps be due to HSV-1, then you're fine, as you already have it orally.
If due to HSV-2, you have only partial protection, and if you've never had cold sores, then you have no protection. *However*, HSV-2 nearly always prefers the genitals, not the mouth. Exceptions nevertheless exist, plus she does have active bumps.
The bumps could also be due to shaving/waxing and/or underwear chafing, in which case you can disregard all of the above!
Best thing is to ask her directly and observe your penis/genital area. Most primary outbreaks occur within a week of exposure, up to usually not more than 20 days.
