I asked about weight lifting because I was wondering if you pinched a nerve in the spine and you are feeling in the "boxer short" area? You don't have pain anywhere else or have incontinence of any kind? HIV1 doesn't breakout that often in the genital area and most people don't know they have it. But it can come up at any time. Yes it isn't quite as common as HSV 2

Hi Answers38,
Yes I think so. If your gf gave oral to you it can be passed that way. Since about 90% of adults have HSV it is hard not to pass HSV1. I hope the burning or tingling in the boxer short area goes away. If not you may want to talk to a neurologist. Have you lifted weights recently or had any back problems?

Sounds like you had an initial herpes outbreak. It can take 1-2 months for an initial one to clear up. Neuropathic pain is part of the course for herpes
Okay, let me know how it goes.

Sounds like it was a fungal infection but possibly something else is causing the neuropathy (burning) you are getting. I guess you have to wait and see if anything come up as recent infection. I wouldn't worry about the white tongue. See if you can use a tongue cleaner such as on the back of your toothbrush and try to remove the white coating on the tongue. If it comes off easily it is just bacteria not yeast. If it bleeds with a light removal it could be yeast. I don't think you have HIV or something that would lower your immune system. I wonder did you go swimming a pool. Maybe the chemicals in the pool gave you a chemical burn?

p.s. have you tried antifungal cream on the areas to see if it would work? Have you had athletes foot? That would give you and idea of how it feels.

Hi, We are not doctors on these sites. But I can try to give you some advice. Did you have unprotected sex? What happened before this? Do you have any rash on your chest or palms or soles of your feet? If you didn't have unprotected sex it could just be a fungus. Herpes looks like tiny blisters in a cluster and it hurts a lot. Does it itch? It does sound like a fungus or maybe a virus or even an allergy to something. But I need more information.
thanks,
