I just finished my 1st outbreak but for some reason I'm having a lot of itching by my anal area. & it still hurts to pass a BM not as bad as 2 weeks ago but still uncomfortable. Anyone else have this problem?

    I had the same issues, it turned out to have nothing to do with my herpes. I had Vaginitis it was so bad itching i was unable to sleep so i went back to my OBGYN. She tested for it and it wasnt the out brake all my symptons where gone though. Also i had issues passing a BM also it was because when the sores closed up it made the skin tight meaning that when it grew back after the sores it made the hole smaller. I had to start taking activia to make it easier to have one. 

    I am having my second out brake currently, not as bad still irritating and itchy a little but much better then the first only 2 days in though.

      Maybe I need to just make a doctor appointment and have it checked out. I thought it would just go away on its own.

    I thought I was the only one who deal with that issue, I don't hurt every time I have bm but most of the time, I thought I had hemorrhoids but it definitely not that.

      I believe I did. I couldn't really see but when I would pass a BM I would bleed. I tried to look last night after my shower but I didn't see any sores. Unless I have sores in my anus hole that I can't physically see. My anus just seems super tight now.
