Hvs2 pls help!

Nova

Hey y’all,

I was diagnosed with hsv2 in may, and I’ve had a couple outbreaks since my initial one that was extremely painful. The last few have been mild, but I’ve been sick a lot lately and not getting enough sleep. Is it normal for a recurring outbreak to cause swollen lymph nodes, too?

Also it is normal to have outbreaks on my anal area even though my intial one was vaginal?
