Question:
OKay, I was diagnosed with herpes six months ago. The reason I was alarmed and sought medical attention was because I had burning during urination and there was skin irritation around my vaginal area. The skin irritation was also bleeding. After being diagnosed with Herpes, I began to think it's a normal thing for your herpes sores to bleed, but I have never read anyone here say their's bleed. This is a case of alarm for me because I have a breakout on my left buttock and the sores(lesions) are bleeding so I have to put bandaids on them. Is this normal of the sores to bleed or is something wrong with me other than herpes?

Answer:
What type of meds are you on??

Answer:
I take Valtrex (1gram) and I take L-Lysine daily.
