    you would know if it is because it will become very painful to perform a bowel movement. the opening will swell hugely and there may be pus discharge. if that happens go and get swabbed and start a course of aciclivir which will shorten the outbreak. I didnt know what it was and left it for nearly a week. it was agony.

    also, if symptoms do worsen, dont put off going to a sexual health clinic. they're all very professional and have seen it all before. it's not a time to be shy
