Be seen by your provider to have them look at it.  If its been less then 48hours they can perform a culture.  Not everything that goes on down there is HSV-2.  

If you are having feelings of suicide please call your local sucide help hotline for help.  It's really not the answer for such a pesky little virus.

ok well then you can seek out confirmatory testing in another month then.   I have no idea what your confirmatory testing options are in india. you'll need to look for a herpes support group online locally to help you with that part.

I don't know if you were really tested for hpv or not. it's not something commercially available in the US but I don't know what your testing options are in india for it. I don't think it reports as non-reactive though. perhaps you meant RPR was non-reactive?

how long ago had you last had sex?

you are hsv1+
you ar hsv2+

your hsv2 is a low positive and you'll need further confirmatory testing to see if it's a true positive or not. was there a specific reason why you were tested?  how long prior to being tested had you last had sex?
