  1. Hey guys to be honest, not drinking that much haven't been drunk in a couple of weeks. The reason I am so chapped and dry seems to be because of the cold. I am in Japan and it's freezing before that I was in the Philippines which was hot. Also these Japanese baths are really hot and my skin just dried up everywhere even my stomach was flaking a little lol.Not sure about clinics here plus I am on the move too much these days to be able to wait around. I have 3 weeks before I end my trip. I'll keep an eye out for anti-histamines would claritin or anti allergy pills work? Thanks
  2. Hi, So I am back and in another country and its been over a month now and I still have these bumps/blisters around my rectum. They haven't gone away and seem to have flared up when I went to these hot baths. I took Valtrex or something like it and I took a hsv-2 test which came back negative. I have been cleaning with alcohol and almost showering twice a day and nothing. Now my skin is dry all over from the weather and showers and now it seems that my penis has some scabbing around the ridge of the head and in places on the shaft (though I can't be sure if it's just extremely dry skin or Now a new area is infected). Stuck in the dark not sure if I should moisturize any of the affected areas or not. Really just tired of being in the dark, not being able to do anything securely or medically it's very frustrating.
  3. Thanks guys the blog helped. I feel better about my towel especially because it's the traveling quick dry kind. I'll try to remain calm and keep that promise. @seeker I'll do my best with the google and porn
  4. Also I can't seem to get a straight answer online about using my totoweland not spreading it elsewhere on me
  5. I'll do my best... It's tthe uncertainty that's driving me nuts... Basically I have to assume I have it but maybe not and start to act accordingly. It's like my body isn't mine anymore
  6. Oh OK thanks again guys. It's been difficult and I think has affected me socially. And Tom is my birthday. Hope in the end it'll be nothing. Thanks
  7. Hey so the results came back Herpes 2 igm: 0.283 Herpes 2 igg: 0.331
  8. Thanks for all the time you've taken to talk to me. It's really helped since I haven't spoken to anyone else about this.
  9. Just found this online: Symptoms of Anal Herpes The symptoms of anal herpes are reasonably unique, but only if you know all of what you're looking for. If you're not paying attention, anal herpes can be mistaken for hemorrhoids, anal fissures, an allergic reaction, heat rash, a yeast infection, ingrown hair follicles, abrasions, jock itch or even insect bites. The reason these false diagnoses come up is because people are only paying attention to one or two symptoms instead of all of them. The process of elimination by consideration of symptoms is called "differential diagnosis", and it's essential to dealing with the anorectal region. So, in the interests of accurate diagnosis, all possible symptoms of anal herpes should be investigated. Anal herpes, along with hemorrhoids and anal fissures, can cause a knife-like pain during bowel movements with the pain lasting for up to 15 minutes after the movement's complete. This pain is often described as "like passing glass." Anal herpes can also leave bright red blood on the toilet paper, in the bowl or on the stool. It can even make you feel as though you have to pass a movement constantly. When herpes manifests around the anus, it often forms a small crack or fissure instead of the more typical blisters, ulcers or rash. In a sense, it really is an anal fissure, just one with a viral cause instead of from overstraining. You also may notice a bloody or mucus discharge. The real symptoms that differentiate anal herpes from everything else are the specifics that identify an infection, such as swollen lymph nodes, fever, headache, muscle ache, burning sensation in infected area, lower back pain, and recurrence of symptoms. The infected area is usually painful and will probably itch, burn or tingle right before and during an active outbreak. If that is true all I had/have are the blisters/bumps around the cavity... This is so confusing I hope this all clears up
  10. Thanks! Bizarrely this blood test only tests for hsv-2. Is it true though that it may be too early to tell.I've been reading that enough antibodies haven't been made yet. If so it still doesn't help me and still can't technically relax, right? Plus nothing has shown up on my mouth besides some irritation but that seems to happen when I generally meet someone new. I think it's like my body needs to get used to them. I feel so stupid and daily regret that night and I am on vacation....this sucks!!
  11. OK so just went and got a HSV blood test done that focuses solely on having-2 I'll have an answer tomorrow god willing. Fingers crossed thanks again!
  12. Holy crap ya that just upped the anti. Not sure if this helped or freaked me out more. I do appreciate the time and answers though.
  13. It's been five days I just finished the medication its still there but almost nothing.
  14. I'm in the Philippines right now. When I told the doctor where to look she kinda choked like she didn't want to go down there lol don't blame her. But the moment she looked at it she was like definitely. Plus looking at pictures on google and how soon it happened after that night makes me agree. I won't be able to get it checked till I get back. Should I continue thinking it is herpes and be safe or relax?
  15. Hi, so I had protected sex but you know how fingers end up everywhere. Couple days later (not to get graphic) my anal area is tingling and red bumps show up which are uncomfortable. I was freaking out and went to the doctor who only looked at a photo I took and declared it herpes. Basically my question is, if the symptoms above are the only ones I had, and there was no fever or joint pain or anything else. Is it at all possible it could be something else. To be safe I am already taking valtrevaltrex or one of them but please help I am not ready for this. Thanks
