Hello doctor, I received unprotected oral sex 13 days ago. No symptoms of genital herpes except for today, I have an itchy anus. No visible bumps, blisters or pain. Is it possible this is the beginning of an outbreak? Or perhaps caused by severe anxiety and prolonged sitting?
Hello. Itching over the anal region can be due to many causes: In genital herpes, there will be burning/tingling sensation before the blisters appear. Another possibility is gonorrhea if there is any history of unprotected anal sex. Please watch out for rashes, blisters, or discharge. Sitz bath will be of help for itch relief.
