have you read the free herpes handbook yet to learn how to properly treat your herpes?  what testing did you have for herpes originally? do you have hsv1 or hsv2 genitally?

your symptoms sound like a fungal infection more than anything. give the diflucan at least 3 or 4 days to start working.

Thanks Grace you are an angel!

No, I am on Valtrex for about 50 days. I don't have blisters any more but the redness,Icht
and the burning sensation does not wanted to go away. I would like to know what to do
to help to get rid off this situation. I already visit two doctors, Doctor #1 told me that the
redness has nothing to do with the herpes that what I have is something call Red Scrotum
syndrome, Doctor # 2, Also thinks that has nothing to do with the herpes and gave a powder call NYSTOP 2 weeks later and did nothing, Now he gave a pill call FLUCONAZOLE now he thinks is fungal, But no red scrotum syndrome.
The tingling also comes and goes and it could be on my face,legs,arms,back anywhere.
I was diag. 3 month ago Please help to resolve this?

this isn't likely to be herpes related.

give your provider a call for further advice.
