Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I developed a rash in the groin area (rash had blisters post shaving, small itching at the beginning but no pain or fever). I got a HSV Igm & Igg test, test and the results came positive for HSV 1 and 2 (Grouped) IgM and IGG but came out negative for HSV Igg. Also followed this by a HSV PCR test but this came out as "not detected" for HSV 1 and 2. I am struggling with interpreting the results and would like to know if there are any other tests needed. Kindly help.
Thank you.
