A member asked:
Had my first genital herpes outbreak recently, cleared up now thanks to medication, but still itchy? thrush (as i'm prone) or to do with herpes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Herpes simplex: Without an exam impossible to know, but yeast infection usually accompanied by discharge and/or a rash, whereas herpes can sometimes present with itching which is a subliminal form of pain.
