Does this sound like herpes simplex 2?

Posted , 4 users are following.

My girlfriend started getting these reoccurring rashes around her genitals and upper buttocks. Is there a way I could send pics for a guess at a diagnosis?

    No idea how to send a picture. Never have on here .

    Are these rashes like blisters / open red rashes like ?

    Is she in any pain ? Discharge or anything ?

    Her skin peeling in any way ?

      These red patches with tiny blisters inside of them started appearing about 1 1/2 years ago. She says they itch. They go away after a week or so.... They pop up, blisters start to pop, they dry out with some peeling and then go away. They stay gone for a couple of months, then reappear.

      Nope. Just a rash that looks alot like the pics of herpes on google.

      I just lost my job and can't afford the 120$ for a herpes text.

      That's why I'm here. Looking for answers.

      Do u have it in front and in back and do they appear at the same time? Does it get worse over time?

      Yep I have it around by vaginal entrance and around my anus. It probably won't get any worse than it is now, outbreaks usually decrease over time!
