How do you know the difference between Genetal Herpes and Shingles?

Go to the doctor.hers my help to you. GO TO A DOCTOR RIGHT AWAY. good luckOk, first of all in anyway u need to se a doctor and he will tell you for sure.
But just to give you some information. Hepres And Varicella Zoster are very closely retated virus, they are forme the Herpes viridae family.
Shingles are the Varicella virus (yes the pox) that remain in ur nerves. They generally can be diagnosed because they run through dermatomes, that is the path the nerves show trough the skin. Theres a dermatome that goes fromm the butt to the foot., so it can be it. Genital herpes only appear in a small area and doesnt have the burning pain shingles have. You MUST pay attention o this and have it checked. Shingles are not tnormal in people as young as you and much more uncomon twice! un less they have another disease that can debilitate their imune system. Please go have a check up to make sure u dont have anoother problem.
