Symptoms?

[User1]

Hi I have done a negative igg 6 months post exposure and also have had a GUM docotr woth 30 years experience tell me that i do not have hsv.

However i get weird symptoms like itchy arm pits and crawling sensation in feet and testicles.

My testicles are also quite itchy.

Also is it possible to have an outbreak straight after just having one?

Thanks

GEnital herpes would not cause you to have itchy arms pits and unlikely to cause crawling sensations in your feet. Nor does it cause itchy testicles. I would rely upon the advice of someone who has 30 years of experience with sexual health.

If you had herpes, could you have back to back outbreaks? yes

Thanks Terri. So in all your experience of dealing with GH people dont really complain of itchy armpits or itchy scrotum during out break

Certainly not itchy arm pits, no, wrong nerve group. And unless the outbreak is on the scrotum, not itchy scrotum either.

Thanks Terri. I just find it weird it feels like I have had 3 outbreaks in a row. I get itchy armpits and ear ringing. And also itchy around genitals at night.

Weird that these synptoms come together.

Also I have seen online that itchy genitals are a symptom but you say they arent unless there are lesions?

[Terri Warren]

Itching armpits and ear ringing have nothing to do with herpes. Sometimes people with genital itching can be related to herpes but definitely not always

Sometimes itching can be related to herpes just prior to an outbreak, yes, but this seems to have been going on for a while for you.
