a week after my hernia surgery there was no catheter used but i tested negative for all stds but did not test for herpes but have no bumps or anything. however i have this stinging pain when i urinate during and after, I also notice white spots when I open the tip of my penis and clear discharge. and my urine stream for the 1st second doesnt come out right. i took azithromycine, metronidazole, and phenazopyridine. my urologist didn’t want me to finish doxycycline or cephalexin. I also have abdominal cramps and loss of appetite. haven’t done a cytoscope in my urethra yet but I just don’t know what it could be. does this sound like herpes?

It does not sound like herpes, no. It would be quite unusual to have HSV genitally and not have sores externally. Urination is very painful when herpes is in the urethra, with or without external sores. But the condition doesn’t last long – from your post, I can’t tell how long this has been going on. Can you clarify?

It happened with discharge on 7/16. Then pain around the 22nd or 23rd they thought it was gonorrhea or chlamydia so i was given a shot and doxycycline on the 16th. Then the 23rd i had unbearable pain urinating and my urine stream would go sideways. Swollen lymph nodes in my groin where i had the inguinal hernia repair on the 8th. And white ulcers appeeared inside the urethra opening. Now after taking azithromycine, metronidazol doxycycline and keflex symptoms died down but the meatus area still stings when peing or ejaculating, lymph nodes get tender after ejaculating 2 times. And i noticed when i get an erection or masterbate it would hurt in the meatus and shaft area. Bacteria culture came back negative before and after treatment but not sure if it was due to the antibiotics.

I’m sorry, I really don’t know what this might be. I would be unusual to have HSV only in the urethra, but not impossible. You might want to get an IgG test for HSV if this is still a concern.

How reliable is the urethra swab for herpes? I also just got diagnosed with monkeypox at the same time these symptoms happened. The doctors are thinking its related to monkeypox.

pretty reliable, yup. If you have urethral herpes.

but should I still do a blood test for herpes? 10 years ago i had a positive igm but 3 months later a negative igg. and since then i vowed to never test for herpes again and only if i showed actual symptoms.
