Other symptoms are cracked/raw/red areas around genitals, pain from urine coming in contact with sores, fever, swollen glands, fatigue, backache, and headache.
What else can I help you with?
If you are told you have a bladder infection because of symptoms but it is really HSV1 will the next outbreak happen the same way?
It can. However, HSV presents itself in many different ways. Do not count on bladder symptoms. It would be a good idea to get on a preventive medication for your HSV. Remember, you can transmit HSV even when you do not have an outbreak.

Yes, HSV-2 (herpes simplex virus type 2) can potentially cause prostatitis, although it is not a common cause.

How does viral shedding works in HSV1 and 2?
Viral shedding in HSV-1 and HSV-2 occurs when the virus is released from the skin or mucosal surfaces, often without visible symptoms. This can happen during active outbreaks, but also during asymptomatic periods, leading to potential transmission to others. Shedding can occur in various anatomical sites, including the oral cavity for HSV-1 and the genital area for HSV-2. The frequency and duration of shedding can vary among individuals and are influenced by factors such as immune status and stress.
