HELP constant itching, ball ache, sore penis, tingling

                     When you first get herpes it can be painful cause aches pains tingles, and generally be uncomfortable, the good news is this will pass, sorry I don't have a time frame as to when it will happen but Ive had it 5 years and at first I used to get leg/bum/thigh pains constantly where it was hard to walk, now I never get that anymore so I do know for sure they can go away over time.

Poor guy it must be hell, I can't say take this and it will definately work but I can give you some ideas of what to try to ease his discomfort, right so he has no sores at all, but he has itching, so on the external areas he is itching tell him to get some tea tree oil (good quality 100% pure) and apply (as many times as desired thru the day) it to the area undiluted with a cotton ball, only use the cotton once never re-dip it. This might sting but it stops the itching for me so it might work on him too.

I stoped getting outbreaks/symptoms of herpes by eating a large chunk/ring of fresh pineapple everyday, or by drinking non-concentrated pineapple juice (I even eat it dried sometimes from the supermarket, recently and it still works for me) so try that for at least a week to see if that helps at all.

If you can get some virgin cold pressed organic coconut oil he can apply that to affected areas and also eat a good couple of tablespoons a day that can also alleviate symptoms.

Try either the pineapple or the coconut oil first, not together to see which one if any works for him.

Also do your research on the internet, eating certain foods and drinks will trigger the symptoms and tell him NOT to stress, as stressing out lowers your immune system and leads to more symptoms, I know its easier said than done but tell him to be positive.

Whne he bathes or showers get him to dry his man parts/bum with a hair dryer on low heat setting, if the area is dry its less likely to be itchy than if he leaves it wet or towel drys, plus he doesn't want to spread it around even tho he has no sores the virus is still present and can shed at any time.

Other people may come along and give you more good advice hopefully some men out there who can help a little more than me.

Please let us know how he gets on and if any of these tips help him at all.

All the best.

I eventually kept taking valtrex daily and now I don't have any burning pain 6 months later. Because he stops taking valtrex when this co tinues, his viral load stays high in his system and jt co tibues. He's likely going to need to be on 1000mlgs daily for some time.

I was experiencing breakouts in 500mlgs a day about ondw or twice a month, but they don't hurt at all. Just some mild sensitivity while being on valtrex. But I bad lots of funny nerve stuff, like tingkig, or creepy crawly sensations that make u itch it and it goes away, hence why I started taking 1000 daily, which it had decreased significantly since.

I definitely have obs even on meds when stressed, lack of sleep and if I go out drinking late.. That's the biggest one. Caffeine and sweet foods are triggers. I don't know what his diet is, but cutting sugar and caffeine I would highly recommend. Have him start taking lysine 3000mlgs a day, 3xs daily dose vitamin c, pineapple daily, stay away from starches, they increase inflammation in the system, use a cotton ball to blot all natural TWA tree oil on his penis.. Bactine numbing spray may help as well. For itching, hydrocortisone will help some. What helped the most for me w itching especially, was long hot baths w Epsom salt.

If you or someone you know has experienced these genital symptoms, I have found the cure!

Symmetrical redness on scrotum, tingling/itching feeling, random testicle pain, hair follicles on scrotum are raised, scrotum droopier than normal.

I dealt with these symptoms for over six months after traveling to Mexico, Honduras, and Belize. When I got back and saw a dermatologist he said it DEFNITELY was not herpes (no boils or sores) and he misdiagnosed it as contact dermatitis. He prescribed me steroid cream that did more harm than good. Finally, after scouring the internet I found a testimony very similar to mine.

After trying everything from dipping my balls in vinegar to assaulting my nuts with baby powder I finally used the dandruff shampoo Nizoral. After washing my genitals once, a day with Nizoral the symptoms finally started receding! My testicles FINALLY returned to normal skin color instead of a fiery red color. This pesky rash caused me an enormous amount of stress and I am relieved to say I finally found this treatment that works! If you have experienced these symptoms, please try Nizoral dandruff shampoo and spread the word!! (I saw two doctors who had NO IDEA what it was or what to do. Self-treatment for the win! This condition seems to be unrecognized by most doctors. Once you try this treatment and see that it works please spread the word around the internet. People deserve access to this useful information.)
