Reply To: Potential HSV2 infection

[coolpeach]

I have had what I thought were pimples or ingrown hairs on my thighs and butt. Most of them are raised and filled with yellow pus when I pop them. Most of them also have a hair in the center but I don’t shave my legs so I don’t know why I would have ingrown hair. I’ve also had genital warts that i first noticed when I was 9 years old. In the past year these have occasionally been painful, whereas before that, I’ve never noticed any discomfort from them. I’m also curious how I would have gotten genital warts at nine years old? Would HSV2 affect the nerves where these are at and make them painful?
I’ve been terrified since the equivocal result so I’m hoping you can shed some light on my situation.

Thanks!
