Q: Possible Symptoms of Hiv Or Syphyllis, Other Than Herpes

I recently, 6 weeks ago had unprotected sex with a 23yr old female, oral and vaginal. About a week later I developed two pimples on the shaft of my penis. They stuck around for about 2-3 weeks and are now gone. I had some groin swelling as well and had the flu around that time. I just noticed that I had two more types of lesions at the base around the scrotum and have some swelling again of the groin area, although I have a bad cold right now. I just noticed this morning a red dot under my lip. Not a pimple. I have herpes already and have for 15 years from my wife, so I know what herpes is. My wife and I have been separated for 3 months but we did have sex after this encounter. She went in for her yearly checkup and they found her bloodwork abnormal and are doing tests. I haven't gone in yet but what is the possible cause of this. From what I have read it seems like syphyllis or hiv. Any ideas or answers. The test comes back in a few days.

Thanks
