Herpes by massage

Hi every one,

I had massage 4 weeks back. She mastrubated me by lotion and also did anal fingering for a minute like half inch. I kissed her nipples and her pants were on always.

One week later I went for std testing(for my sexual encounter 3 month back) and all came negative except for herpes hsv igm as detected.(it didnt say positive). Hsv titer and igg tests were negative.

Doc said I need to get re tested after a month or so for confirmation.
For 3 weeks I had little burnibg sensation on tip of my penis nd had urge to urine all time.
Doc did uti tests which all came negative.

She thought it might be some fungal infection and gave me azytgromycin and for a.week.it was good,.now again burning started.


Its really really mild.
Can herpes be contracted like this by massage???

Thank you grace for your help. Went for Herpes follow up test and its negative.
Doc did send me to a urologist and he did check prostate and every thing is normal.
He just said may be prostate inflammation due to sitting for long times.

Thank you again

being seen will help you find out what is going on, it's not all about herpes!!

nothing else I can help you with at this point - follow up with your provider.

But u think its not herpes. Some other infection  which can be cured.
Not an STD.
Coz I am reallly worried abt hiv and I got false poz on oral swab and went to doc for hiv blood work and she did a complete std where only hsv igm was detected rest every thing including hiv was non reactive.

I am worried if its herpes from massage whuch was like jus a month did it even carry risk of hiv or so....hmmm I am mentally tired of all this.. Plzz help.me out

Wen I still complained about my burning even after normal uti, she did a penis exam and said it might be general fungal infection or some sort of irritation. She didnt say any thing abt prostate. Jus got one dose of azytromycin and a cream.

it's not herpes going on.

did they do a manual exam of your prostate too when you were seen?

if symptoms are back after antibiotics are done, time to be seen again.

herpes igm testing is greatly flawed testing and current CDC recommendations are that it not be drawn on adults for the purpose of diagnosing herpes.  your igg testing was negative 3 months post encounter and you were never at any risk from herpes from the massage encounter.  

the lotions/oils they use at those places can cause a chemical urethritis. go and be seen again and get a urine culture and testing done to check for infection from the lotion being massaged into your urethra.
