    Herpes sores. I've only had 3 outbreaks in 20 years. Each time I knew it was coming from the tingling/stingy sensation. I also felt achy in my lower joints.

    The first outbreak will be the worst. Last about 14 days.

    You may never have an outbreak again, but the virus will be with you.

      vaclovir but you need to take it right before or at the start of an outbreak

    Concur with the others chiming in. Appears to be genital herpes. I'd get in to see your PC doc asap for testing and have him/her get you started on Valtrex sooner rather than later to clear up your outbreak.
