Question:
I've just been diagnosed with genital herpes type2 - had a big outbreak last week and I am at the tail end of it. My question is: Is it possible that I might have mistaken mild outbreaks for ingrown hair in my groin and then experience a big painful outbreak? I am asking bc I have had this major ingrown hair (I thought) since November and it comes and goes away. Even went to the doctor 2-3 times and told me to put this creme on to make it go away. The cortisone creme did help but it kept on coming back around my menstrual cycle. It was a nuance and at time sensitive at the touch but it was nothing like this time around. Is it possible to have small almost unoticable outbreaks and then a huge one?

Answer:
yes...
