Herpes bleeding?

Posted , 7 users are following.

My first outbreak probably started 1-14-16 and it just looked and felt like razor burn. I went to the doctor 1-16-16 with pain, and they confirmed that I have HSV-2. Today is 1-22-16 and I'm am going through a full blown outbreak probably 20+ sores I am also bleeding pretty bad when I poo. Help.

I started valtrex 1-19-16

    It's pretty pointless to start suppressive medicine after you have already started an outbreak ..

    But I can say that when I wiped it hurt really really bad and there would be blood when I wiped down by my vagina but never when I would poo ...

    Doesn't sound to good .

    Is your skin peeling yet ?

    I was recently diagnosed this month, but type 1.

    I did have the bleeding when i went poo.

    And it was extremely painful to poo! When i looked at myself closer however i had blisters right on my anus. So every time i went it hurt so bad and the sore would start bleeding. I would hesitate to go to the bathroom because of this. I will also say those sores took longer to heal than the ones on my vagina., about 2 to 3 days longer to heal.

      Hi there I never knew you could get sores in your anus that must be so painful I would of thought it was piles if I had pain like that do you mind me asking but is that because of anul sex or can the sores just come out anywhere? I only had one sore ever its strange how some people have loads and others have hardly any or no sores maybe it's to do with immunity in different people. I hope you get some suppressive medication soon to help also pain killers and 100% alovera gel helps too for pain on sores drink lots and rest lysine 100 or 3000 mg a day will help too , oregano oil mixed with a base oil rubbed in the base of your spine is supposed to keep it from outbreaks. Look on line for more advice there's lots .

      Good luck

      Yeah well i guess you can get them on your anus, i mean im assuming they were sores. But it was my first out break. I had about 3 around my anus and 4 in my vaginal area. My outbreak only lasted a few days though. And wasnt as bad, compared to others expiriences. But i started supressive medication right away.

      And im going to assum it was because i had vaginal and anal sex that night. I think you only get sores around the areas you had contact with a sore.

      And thanks for the tips, since ive only just had ny first outbreak im not sure how it will go for me from here, i think i have a strong immune systemtl though so hopefully i wont deal with too many outbreaks.

      First outbreak lesions tend to appear at or near the site of infection, while recurrences are usually similar, but may sometimes appear anywhere in the boxer shorts region.

      Your first outbreak is the worst ~ so don't worry if you gave another outbreak it won't nearly be as bad as the first is what I'm told xx

      Im having my first outbreak right now...

      Wish mine only lasted a few days, right now it's been a week since if started...

    Keep your #2 soft and wipe gently, and the bleeding should stop as the lesions heal. Very frightening to have blood in your poo, but it all depends on where herpes lesions appear, unfortunately.
