Itchyyyyyyyy

I am 48 and have had Herpes Simplex since i was 17....I have had no outbreaks in the last 10 years or so....I had a hysterectomy including cervix over 2 years ago and thus going through surgical menopause....Ihave had a stressfull event in my life in the last 2 weeks...something like this would have normally brought on an "outbreak"..but what i have is a rash of 4 bumps on my chest under right breast that itches soooo bad ....its exactly like the sores that came with an outbreak.....is it possible for my herpes outbreak to surface in another area....i have suffered with this already a week......

your genital herpes won't show up on your chest. go and be seen and get it looked at to find out what is going on.
