When can I get back to my normal life?

Posted , 5 users are following.

I was told I had Herpes last week, my sores in my vagina are all cleared up and I can pee now with no burning pain. But my anal area is still very sore! When I know I have to pass a bowel movement I dread it because it's so painful. Im literally crying on the toliet. After I do pass a BM my anal area bleeds, is this normal? When I sit for long periods of time it gets sore then my butt goes numb. Iv also had tingling sensation on my bottom. When will this go away? I just want to live my life again. I also don't have my appetite anymore, when I eat it's not very much. When I pee I have to sit on the toliet for awhile to push all my urine out. I think my bladder muscles are weak. Iv been taking Lysine Vitamins to help.

    I guess it differs for different people .

    Have you told your doctor about the issue ?

    They could possibly give you numbing cream for the area...

    I can say from experience I have never had any issues with any sores around my anus or any pain during bowel movements ..

    When I do get an outbreak it's like one little bump here or there and it kind of hurts when I have to wipe when I go pee ...

    It just differs for everyone some people have it bad , some people have it worse . My outbreak only last about 6 days but I can tell you it's one of the worst Pains I've ever experienced in my life ..

    Just be patient and defintely see if you can talk to your doctor about what's going on because I've never had any issues like that and I have had herpes since December of 2015 .

    How long have you been diagnosed with Herpes ?

    What type do you have ??

      I have never experienced any burning of anything

      The most pain I have is when I wipe myself ..

      But it's not that bad

      Other then I have no problems pains issues or anything

      How old are you ? Are you older ? I'm kind of scared of when I get older because it may worsen ...

    I also had sores on my anus during my first OB. Those sores where there also after the ones around my vsginal area were gone, i remember i would also cry or not even want to pass a bowel movement because of the pain, and the sores would also bleed if i did. So i went through a similar experience as you.

    I would also exporience tingling sensations for up to a few weeks after my OB. But it was at random time, random days and wouldnt last too long.

    Not to sure of the ehole losing sensation and sore bottom, you should talk to your doctor about that.

      My anus doesn't get numb just my butt gets numb. But I read that Herpes lives in your spine so I think that's why I'm getting a tingling sensation then a numbness. I just want to be able to pass a BM without pain! I'm hoping it gets better soon. After my medication is gone I'm going to see a OBGYN for a check up.

      How long does the tingling last ? Does it feel like a pull muscle , and does it hurt when you walk ?

      I have this tingling, odd places then I feel a muscle in my buttock pulsing..

      The other night I had pulsing in my outer thigh for about an hour... Anyone have this? Not painful just aware of pulsing... My GP has been useless.

      I haven't been tested because I'm super scared . But I have pain that travels from both cheeks , pain in my outer thigh , muscle jumps constantly, I try rubbing the pain out . Pain in my knees when I walk I can feel the pain . It's everyday for me . Idk if it's anxiety or what. It feels like a pulled muscle . I'm constantly rubbing my body . I went to my doctor she sent me to a pt for three days and nothing changed

      I have pain in my outer thigh as well , pain in my hips . Some times it feels like I have something stuck up my butt. I have tingling in my private are , with jumping muscle . I did ask my doctor is it or could it be Herpers, she said if I get something down there she will check but she don't think it is .
