A member asked:
How do you test and or treat herpes in the kidneys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No such thing: Herpes does not infect the kidneys. There is no such test and no need for treatment. If you're speaking of genital herpes, ask another question with more details about exactly what you mean.
