By the weekend I had what felt like a yeast infection but I also had little dimples around my genital area. I went to the dr on Monday who said it looked like herpes and prescribed 400mg of acyclovir three times a day and sent a swab in for a culture. The results came in 5 days later as positive for hsv 1. The pain was awful even wroth medication.
