My girlfriend has been dealing with some type of outbreak that has had her in excruciating pain for several days. She is an exotic dancer and has had 2 yeast infections in the past 6 months, initially we thought this was just another, but then the pain got worst until she could barely walk. Upon going to planned parenthood the people suggested that she may possibly have herpes. I am confused because I have been checked out for herpes and there is no reason to believe that she has it. The symptoms do seem something like an initial herpes outbreak but there is a strong odor, much like a bad infection. Unfortunately she is also on her period so this is exacerbating the entire situation. I'm just wondering if anybody else has had a similar experience that may be able to shed some light on what may be happening.
Three quick questions
1) what is the likelihood of a dancer contracting herpes from a stripclub?
2) is it common for an infection-like odor to occur with an initial outbreak?
3) what remedies can she use for the pain down there?
She can barely move, is incredibly scared, and says she feels like passing out every time she goes to the bathroom because the pain is so bad. There must be another way than for her than to just wait for the test results, which should be within the next 7 business days (9 days from now). Thank you for any tips or advice. I will certainly update as we learn more so that other people may learn form this experience too.
