Reply To: possible acquire herpes from expose to vagina fluid

Back pain that lasts half a day is very likely not related in anyway. At six weeks, the IgG HSV 2 antibody test would be about 70% accurate. That is, there is a 70% chance that a negative results would stay that way at a final 4 months test. Also, pain in the urethra that would go away in a couple of days is very unlikely to be herpes. With herpes, that pain would normally be accompanied by sores and would likely also last longer.
