I know the actual virus can be passed on since its contagious, but is there bacteria that could be passed on?

My boyfriend knows about me having type 2 H. I took medication to control my 1st outbreak last month. I have only given him oral and he has used a toy on me but he washed his hands RIGHT after. during that time i had no signs of an outbreak and we have never had sex after i found out. 

Anywho... 2 days ago he has had symtoms of what seems to be kidney stones, which i read from webmd. No sores or blisters just a walnut sized lump above his groin below his waste. He said its hurt to the touch. And it painful to urinate.although there are no sores present. He went to the emergency room today and he told me the doctor said he has herpes bacteria on his penis. I've heard of passing the virus but not bacteria...and ive never heard of those type of symptoms being herpes. I am very confused and very worried. He cant go back and forth to the doctor because he has no health insurance. so if anyone could help me or give me some information on this would be very greatful.

Thank You
