Can a candida infection look like herpes?

[manofanxiety]

HI,
I heard that the rash might not be herpes it might be a candida infection does anyone have a candida infection that looks like herpes or vice versa cuz i need to know if I'm contagious.

i took test for STD's after 9 days of the incident ( i kissed a Prostitute) ,it was negative.

And took saliva test after 3 weeks , the result for saliva test is,
>occasional pus cell and no microorganisms were seen,
>absence of growth after 48 hrs of incubation.

My symptoms are : dry mouth, bloating stomach, 2 sores(like patches)on my tongue,chest pain,twitching muscles

9 days test is ok to find candida or herpes ? what about my tests? Please advice
whats the major symptom difference between herpes and candida infection ?

I am worrying like a hell all day, can anxiety cause these ?

yes indeed anxiety can cause all this.

see your provider for follow up if you still aren't feeling well.

Grace, thanks for your reply.

i could feel the stiff neck also , is this because of lymph nodes? can we see swollen lymph nodes by ourself or only we can confirm swollen lymph nodes by some testing ?

And i am worried with my severe headaches and constant stomach bloating .

i still have dry mouth,dry hair,dry skin,constant stomach bloating,gas,yawning,heavy chest pain,heavy headache,joint pains, muscle aches,cramps in hands.

anyone had this and got any disease or all symptoms after u left the anxiety? ? ?

Please anyone help me on this,can anxiety cause these ?

none of this sounds like it's a std at all. sounds like anxiety more than anything to  be honest.

i dont have jock itch, my symbtoms are,
skin burning sensation, joint pains, muclse aches,cramps in legs,2 small patches on my tongue,dry mouth, bloating stomach,Gas

And i could say one thing,
i was feeling very very much anxiety when i started to think about HIV, after some days i didnt think about much so the fever is gone, then again i started to think about Herpes, with in a day, i got fever.

is it possible, anxiety cause my symptoms ? and what is the perfect time to get tested for herpes ?

[gracefromHHP]

your risk for herpes was incredibly low .

I assume you were seen and told you have jock itch but you are wondering if it's herpes?
