Back and Leg Pain

Hello all,

I am a 22 year old male and last week I had protected sex with a few seconds of unprotected oral. A few days after I noticed sciatic pain in my lower back and hips as well as itchiness in my rectum.  I have not had any blisters or Outbreaks (that I can see) but I am concerned that this signs of herpes.

The girl I slept with claims to be clean and has tested negative in the past.

Any hell will be appreciated.

Grace, sorry for the late reply I did not see your response.  I have tested negative in the past.  The back pain has got better but still persists (total of about 3 weeks) .  

I also started to notice swelling in my neck (lymph nodes).  Which I think suggests an infection somewhere in my body.  I still have no obvious lesions or blisters.  (although I know everyone is different)


I believe that I have to wait 3 months to get an accurate result for a blood test

odds are this isn't herpes going on.

have you ever been tested for herpes before to know your status?
