Hi everyone~!
I was diagnosed with HSV2 about 2 years ago. I have questions about :
Doctors
Symptoms
Medications
1.Who do you see for your HSV? I was going to my primary care provider but I have a feeling she doesn't know the best way to help me. I'm considering going to a dermatologist. Does anyone have experience with this?
2. So I had my initial outbreak in February of 2017. I took medication, it went away. Since then I have had a couple of manageable outbreaks which went way with medicine just fine. However, for the past 4 months it feels like I am having a constant break out, no matter how much medicine I take. When I went to my primary care doctor she said that it was not a HSV 2 lesion, it was just acne. However, I have never had acne like this in my pubic area. It doesn't hurt like HSV 2 lesions do, but they look like pimples and they last a long time. Anybody have any experience with this?
3. Do you use acyclovir? Has it ever not worked for you?
Thank you for reading!
