Have I been exposed to herpes
Posted , 5 users are following.
I had a one night stand with a girl about 2 and half weeks ago after 5 years of no sex. She insisted on turning the light of which is strange looking back now.She used a lot of saliva on my penis when giving me a hand job. About 3 days ago on monday I had an annoying itch on the shafts of my penis inside my foreskin which I scratched and then it turned red, on tuesday the itch then turned into a very uncomfortable tingling all over my penis which has not stopped for the past two days. It's like stinging and quiet uncomfortable and I also have some lower back pain. Even though I have no sores yet I am pretty sure this is the early stage of herpes.Has anyone had these symptom? I am in the middle of doing a University assignment but I can't even focus.I am going to get tested on Friday.

Probably too early to test unless you have a visible sore.

I went to my GP today he said he is not able to diagnose tingling as he could not see anything visible on my penis so he can't say what I have. He advised me to go to the Gum clinic on Friday and prescribed Aciclovir 400 mg just case the sores show up in the next couple of days.
