Reply To: Tingling but no outbreak??

[Joe1866]

Thank you Terri,

Just a few more questions

1. Are you concerned that the tingling occurred in the period when herpes symptoms are supposed to occur

2. Online I saw herpes symptoms such as tingling wouldn’t last an daily for an entire month. Is this further proof that I’m not infected

3. On Reddit and online I see a lot of people saying they got herpes off a one night stand, how come it happens to a lot of people if one exposure is truly low risk

4. I forgot to include that I felt itching in the areas between my testicle and thigh on both sides. This also happened within the week after exposure. The itching only lasted a few minutes until I relieved it but got irritated after. The skin was irritated but not inflamed and it went away after a day or two. Could this be herpetic?

5. If I test negative via igg after 10 weeks would you recommend I move on

6. I also shaved my pubic area a few days before which may have led to me getting razor burns. Could herpes enter through my pubic area due to this

7. Do you think my symptoms could represent a primary herpes infection, one that’s possibly minor to the point most people wouldn’t notice it

Thank you Terri,
Your comments have calmed me down a good amount
