I have a single lesion on left testicle. saw it this morning. quick care dr suspects herpes. awaiting blood test. can i hold off on taking acyclovir?

Pain?: Do you have pain? If no pain it is not herpes. IF there is no pain the lesion can be syphilis and not herpes. Urgent care doctors are not usually STD Experts. I would advise you to see your family physician for these type of problems.
