Is this Herpes?

Description:

Burning small red blisters a few centimeters above the anus. I am not sure about the size, but hair on the photo can be a good reference.

It started to itch/burn a couple of days ago, and a week after physical contact with a girl with a cold sore. We didn't have oral or intercourse, but she did like a handjob. She might have touched her face occasionally. I had flu-like symptoms for a few days before the lesions.
