Get tested: It is not feasible to know from what you described if you are infected with HIV. Get tested. Ask your doctor for a fourth generation test. If it is negative, repeat the test in three months. See this site for info on safe sex. http://www.aids.org/topics/aids-factsheets/aids-background-information/what-is-aids/safer-sex-guidelines/

This is not HIV: HIV does not announce itself as a rash on your penis in any case. Chances are that this is a minor hygiene problem or perhaps mild allergy to clothing or detergent. If it stays around for 2 weeks or more, get it seen, or if it's painful, get evaluated now for possible herpes.
