black itchy marks on legs
by worried1969, Nov 09, 2008 01:13PM
Hi,
My husband has gential herpes and I have never had any outbreaks. He gets them all the time. However, I tested positive for herpes about 3 years ago when I was having a bout of stomach/abdominal pain from endometriosis, and was surprised that I had contracted it, as we had not related sexually during any outbreaks.
A long time ago, more than 5 years ago and before I married my husband, I noticed a red circular rash with tiny bumps on my upper thigh (outside) and it itched like crazy. A doctor told me that it looked like shingles, but never gave me treatment, because he said it would probably go away, and it did. However, it has returned, and now on both sides of my legs, the spots mirroring eachother. I'm really worried now because the red has turned to black and they look scary. They no longer itch very much, but rather feel sharp pain inside once in awhile. Is this shingles again? If so, will it go away? I fear it might spread to other areas, but not sure if I should panic yet.
Your help is deeply appreciated,
