Is Swollen Lymph Nodes And Sore Throat Sign Of ARS?

i had unprotected vaginal sex with a stranger 35 (5 weeks) days ago (yes i know i am a fool for doing that) but 3 days post exposure i had a mild diarrhea which prompted to visit doctor the following day, i got prophylaxis for gonorrhea, chlamydia and trichomoniasis. these meds gave me a slight fever and after i was finished them i had what seem to be a sore throat developing (2 weeks after) but i gargled with warm salt water and it went away and that came back 2 weeks after again and i gargled again and it went away. on the 4th week i noticed 4 pimples, 2 on either side of my nose and above the pimples on the left side raised bit of skin about 0.5 a cm. yesterday my neck was throbbing but i didn t find any lymph node but however today i have found lymph node along my collar bone and neck, 1 in my left elbow area, 1 by my right knee and another in my upper right groin region. could these possibly be ARS symptom? sorry for the length of my post :(
