Outbreak or what?

Hi I've had hpv1  in my private area for little over 8 months now. My first break out was super bad was put in the hospital for 2 weeks on iv meds because it set off my Lupus. Now I have a sort of sore on the part between my anus and vagina also a few little bumps around that area. It really hurts when I sit and burns when I pee. Could I be having a break out???

are you asking about hpv which is genital warts or hsv1 which is herpes simplex type 1?

I'm going to assume hsv1 but if I"m assumed wrong, please correct me.

could this be a recurrence? Indeed it could be. since it's a saturday, start a round of herpes antivirals and if things get worse by monday, be seen then for a proper exam and some basic testing.

how did they originally diagnose you as having hsv1 genitally?
