Subject: HSV
> I was diagnosed with HSV several years ago with an outbreak on my labia.
> I haven't had another outbreak on my labia since then but from time to
> time I get pimples on my chin, buttocks and thighs. My husband
> sometimes gets pimples on his face and neck as well. Could this be HSV?
> And, he has a habit of trying to pop them. Is this dangereous? Can they
> be spread to other areas of the face/body just by wiping them with a
> towel or applying makeup?
>
> Also, intercourse has been very painful for me. Sometimes I have thin
> white discharge and itching. Is this because of HSV (even if there are
> no lesions present)?
