Could this be herpes?

i woke up to an itch on my butt, scratched it and thought it was an insect bite. But looking at it the day after it seems like theres another circle forming. could this be the start of herpes? i felt fatigued a few days ago & had a random headache. i get tingles and sometimes shooting up my legs... but i havent had any other flu like symptoms since having sex.

I don’t see any obvious blisters there, it just looks irritated skin. The timing of you feeling unwell could just be coincidental and not necessarily related to this.

Although if you’re in any doubt and it puts your mind at ease, I would recommend going to see the doctor and having the area swabbed.

its scabbed over, was just a bite!
