Anal fissure that tested positive for HSV-1
Posted , 2 users are following.
I’ve always had anal fissures due to bowel problems. A week ago my anal fissure was swabbed at the STD clinic and came back positive for HSV-1....and also was told I had a BV... before getting my positive results, I went to the ER the same day of hearing my anal fissure may be herpes. At the ER I was told I did not have herpes after getting my results back from the ER. At the ER the doctor explained that it’s rare that anal fissures happen b/c of herpes. And that my anal fissure was for sure infected but not consistent with herpes out breaks as the fissure didn’t have any bumps or blisters in clusters around it. No evidence of herpes from the ER from the same fissure that was swabbed at the STD clinic that gave me a positive! I don’t have any symptoms of herpes but everything I was told is consistent with what I’m experiencing. I’m really confused by the swabs one being negative & one being positive . Any insight is helpful
