What are signs of herpes genitalis?
vaginal shingles start out feeling like a yeast infection....then progresses to open "burnlike" sores that are usually all on one side...as they follow the nerve path. It is very painful and can cause other things such as horrible joint pain and urine retention. I know this not because i am a physician but because I have this right now. I ended up in the ER when I could not pee for 12 hours. I had a foley cathedar in for 6 days and now I self cath when I have to pee. I am taking Valtrex 1 gm 3 times a day and as I get better the ability to pee without a cath is slowly coming back. This is very painful...rare and serious. Make sure you not only go to an OBGYN but go to a Urologist as well. The obgyn kept saying I had an STd and I did not...they did cultures and took blood tests. The urologist diagnosed it. Make sure if your gyn does not give you an answer you go to a urologist.
