A member asked:
How possible is it that i will have a recurrence of genital herpes in my urethra?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably unlikely: Recurrent herpes urethritis can happen but is uncommon. The chance might be slightly higher if your initial herpes infection involved your urethra (usually quite painful), but even then it would be uncommon.
