I Got A Cold Sore On My Lip And I

I got a cold sore on my lip and I know for a fact I touched it a few times with my finger and accidentally touched my genital area afterwards. This is the first time I have ever had a cold sore and I am really concerned that I will now have genital herpes due to self-innocualtion.
Please help!
