• household route of infection. The virus can be transmitted through the use of shared towels, dishes and other items of daily use. For an infected person to be at risk of infection, HSV-2 must be in the acute phase. Men or women facilitate spread through touching the genital area and subsequent use of shared household items.
• infusion route of infection. It is quite rare, in this case, infection occurs through a transfusion of donor blood. According to medical rules, before such a procedure, all the necessary tests are carried out to exclude the transmission of any infections.
• The vertical route involves infection from mother to fetus through the placenta or during passage through the birth canal.

If during infection the male body has a high immunity, the disease does not manifest itself in any way. The latent course can last for several months or even years. The appearance of the first signs of HSV-2 occurs against the background of another disease, such as a cold. In this case, it is no longer possible to trace the path of infection.

The mechanism of development and causes of the disease in men

Characteristic rashes on the genitals in men are formed due to the defeat of the body by a virus of the second type. Less often, bubbles form in the perineum due to infection of this area with herpes labialis (type 1). Sometimes a small rash occurs on the tissues of the reproductive system in a man due to the activation of both pathogens.

Infection with genital herpes occurs:

• during sexual intercourse with a carrier of the pathogen without using a condom;
• by transferring infection from one part of the body to another;
• through underwear, personal hygiene items.

Herperoviruses are highly resistant to environmental influences. Pathogens of this type remain viable for a day outside the human body. Therefore, it is possible to transmit the infection through a towel, underwear and other objects. However, this rarely happens.

The main reason for contracting the virus is not using contraceptives during sexual relations with a carrier of the pathogen. Moreover, transmission of infection is possible through oral, vaginal and anal contact. Also, relatively often, the appearance of herpetic eruptions on the genitals in men leads to the transfer of the pathogen from another part of the body (usually from the lips).

Infection of the body occurs either through the mucous membranes of the genital organs, or through wounds. In this regard, the appearance of herpes type 2 in men is less common than in women. This difference is explained by the size of the mucous membranes of the genital organs. In men, the area of ​​tissues through which the virus can enter the body is less than in women. As a result, infection of the former does not always occur: the pathogen is washed out during urination.

For men, the danger of a type 2 pathogen lies in the fact that infection is possible even in the latent period, when there are no symptoms of herpes in an intimate place. This is because a small concentration of the virus is found in natural vaginal discharge in women.

In the case of infection of the genital organs with herpes type 2, the latter is introduced into the DNA of the nerves located in the problem area and "rises" to the spinal cord. Due to this feature of the course of the disease, the pathogenic agent remains inaccessible to immunoglobulins (cells of the immune system), as a result of which it is impossible to get rid of the virus: modern methods of therapy stop the symptoms and suppress the activity of the pathogenic agent.

The causes of recurrence of herpes in the intimate area in men are due to the state of immunity. Weakening of the body's defense mechanisms leads to an exacerbation of the disease. Genital herpes manifests itself in men under the influence of the following factors:

• severe stress;
• exacerbation of sexual diseases;
• the course of viral, infectious and other diseases;
• excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages, smoking;
• immunodeficiency state;
• hypothermia or overheating;
• intense physical activity and more.

A decrease in the body's immune defense is due to a deficiency of vitamins and many other factors. Therefore, in order to prevent the disease, it is recommended to monitor the state of your own body.

Pathogen

The pathogen that causes infection with herpes that affects the genitals is a virus of the Herpes viridae family. There are many genetically close forms in the family, but only 2 of them cause sexual manifestations:

• HSV-1 (20% of cases). In addition to manifestations on the genitals, it causes a rash on the lips, eyes, various pneumonias or organic lesions of the central nervous system.
• HSV-2 (80% of cases). It affects not only the genitals, but also the sacral area, inner thighs, buttocks and pubis.

The highest probability of infection is observed if both forms of the virus are transmitted from the carrier at once.

The pathogen is unstable to the external environment, after drying it loses its virulence and quickly dies.

Symptoms of genital herpes in men

The intensity of symptoms of genital herpes in men is determined depending on whether primary infection or exacerbation of the disease has occurred. In the first case, patients experience more severe discomfort. Also, the intensity of symptoms is influenced by the immune status of a person.

The localization of herpetic signs depends on the area through which the infection occurred. Under the influence of provoking factors, the virus "descends" along the nerve trunks, manifesting itself in the same place. However, if genital herpes is not treated, the infection eventually spreads to new areas of the male genital organs, which contributes to the development of severe complications.

General symptoms of the disease

In the case of primary infection, the first signs of genital herpes in men occur after 3-21 days. At the initial stage of the development of the disease, patients have the following clinical phenomena:

• severe burning;
• joint and muscle pain;
• general malaise;
• tingling and redness of tissues in the problem area.

In some cases it is possible:

• a slight increase in temperature (typical for primary infection and immunodeficiency);
• swelling of the genital organs;
• lower back pain.

Within 1-2 days after the onset of these symptoms, bubble rashes are formed, filled with a clear or cloudy liquid. In extreme cases, the latter is filled with blood clots, which indicates the penetration of the inflammatory process into deep tissues.

The photo shows the initial stage of a herpes rash, it can appear in different parts of the male intimate zone. A blistering rash may vary slightly on the mucous membrane of the penis.

After the appearance of rashes, herpes increases the intensity of general symptoms. The clinical picture during this period is supplemented by the following symptoms:

• headache;
• enlarged inguinal lymph nodes;
• pain upon contact with the problem area;
• general weakness;
• fever and dyspeptic disorders (rare).

3-4 days after the appearance of rashes, weeping ulcers appear at the site of the vesicles, which eventually become covered with a dense crust. At this stage of the development of the pathological process, the intensity of itching and burning reaches maximum values. In case of multiple formations on the head of the penis, there are problems with urination.

In the first photo, the rash has already begun to burst, and in the second, the vesicles are at the active stage of virus reproduction.

Sometimes the exacerbation of the disease is mild. In this case, redness usually appears in the problem area. Itching or burning may also occur. However, with this course of the disease, the risk of developing a blistering rash is low.

What does herpes look like in intimate places in men?

Herpetic infection is localized in the following areas:

• penis (usually the head suffers);
• scrotum;
• anus area;
• inner thigh.

The photo shows how herpes struck the mucous membrane of the male genital organ.

Herpes on the genitals in men manifests itself in the form of small watery vesicles. Around such neoplasms, reddening of the skin. Bubbles are often localized in a relatively small area of ​​​​the body. These formations merge with each other as the inflammatory process progresses. In the case of a secondary infection, the problem area suppurates, and the liquid content of the rash becomes opaque.

In the first photo, the herpes rash is at the stage of exacerbation, in the second it is already beginning to dry out and heal.

Preventive measures

Preventing the development of sexually transmitted diseases and the possible recurrence of HSV-2 is the best way to stay healthy. The absence of bad habits and proper nutrition support the body of a man and increase resistance to disease. The following methods are recommended as a prevention of penis herpes:

• Use of barrier contraception during sexual intercourse. Since infection occurs even in the absence of external manifestations of HSV-2, the only way to exclude transmission of the virus is a condom. Monogamous relationships between a man and a woman without the use of a barrier contraceptive are possible after medical confirmation of the absence of STDs in both partners.
• Maintaining a high level of immunity reduces the incidence of recurrence of the disease. Special attention is required during colds and other diseases that can reduce the body's resistance to viruses.
• Vaccination is one of the most effective means of prevention. Vaccination significantly reduces the likelihood of infection, but does not give a 100% guarantee.
• Treatment of the genital organs with antiseptic solutions after unprotected sexual contact. The effectiveness of the method of prevention is unknown.

Herpes on the penis is a severe disease that undermines the immune system of a man. Treatment should only be carried out by a qualified doctor. You should not postpone a visit to the doctor, as HSV-2 can cause severe complications in the form of prostate pathology, nervous system, vision and provoke the development of malignant neoplasms.

How to treat genital herpes in men?

Despite the fact that genital herpes manifests itself in the form of characteristic rashes, this disease requires a comprehensive examination. Examination of the patient is carried out by dermatologists, venereologists or andrologists. Before proceeding with the treatment of genital herpes in men, it is important to exclude syphilis, an allergic reaction, and some other diseases that manifest themselves in a similar way.

Differential diagnosis is based on the results of the following tests:

1. Enzyme immunoassay (ELISA). This method allows you to detect the presence in the body of specific antibodies produced by the immune system after infection with a herperovirus.
2. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Using this method, you can determine the type of virus.

If necessary, culture of microflora is carried out in order to detect herpesvirus. In case of skin lesions near the anus, rectoscopy is prescribed, which allows you to determine the presence of rashes in the rectum.

In addition, if suppuration of the problem area has occurred, material is taken to identify the type of infection that has joined.

It is recommended to start treatment of genital herpes at the first signs of the disease. Often, with this approach, it is possible to avoid the formation of bubble rashes.

Medical therapy

To cure herpes in the intimate area in men, antiviral tablets and ointments are used:

1. Preparations based on acyclovir (Acyclovir, Zovirax). These drugs affect the DNA of the virus, inhibiting the activity of herpes and preventing the growth of the problem area. Ointments are recommended to be applied to the affected areas up to 5 times a day until the rash disappears.

2. "Valacyclovir". The nature of the impact is similar to "Acyclovir". "Valacyclovir" quickly suppresses the activity of any type of herpes virus.

3. "Famvir". The drug is prescribed in cases where the action of "Acyclovir" does not give positive results.

The above drugs, which are available in the form of tablets, are prescribed for the treatment of type 2 herpes in severe cases. These drugs have a complex effect on the body, so they are not recommended for people with liver and kidney diseases. Patients with immunodeficiency are prescribed antiviral drugs in the form of solutions for intravenous injection.

Local and systemic drugs are unable to destroy the virus. Medications are used to improve the patient's condition and eliminate general symptoms.

In the case of a secondary infection, the treatment of herpes on the genitals is supplemented with antibacterial drugs:

1. "Ciprofloxacin".
2. "Amoxiclav".
3. "Tetracycline" and others.

The drug is selected taking into account the type of pathogen. Antibiotics should be taken under medical supervision. Failure to comply with the established dosage leads to a weakening of the immune system, which increases the intensity of the course of the underlying disease.

With genital herpes, complex treatment is carried out, which, in addition to antiviral drugs, includes immunomodulators:

1. "Immunophon".
2. "Lavomax".
3. "Cycloferon".

Vitamin complexes are also used to strengthen immunity. Preparations of this group stimulate the work of the body's defense mechanisms, thereby reducing the duration of the course of herpes.

Good results in the treatment of sexual infection demonstrates the ointment "Gerpferon". This drug has a complex effect on the body. The ointment stimulates the production of interferon, which suppresses the activity of the virus, and anesthetizes the problem area.

In case of recurrence of the pathology, it is recommended to refuse sexual intercourse. During this period, it is necessary to treat problem areas daily with antiseptic compounds in order to reduce the risk of secondary infection.

Treatment with folk methods

Treatment of genital herpes in men should be carried out with antiviral drugs. Traditional medicine methods in this case are used as an addition to traditional therapy.

In the fight against viral agents, decoctions and infusions help:

• echinacea;
• chamomile;
• aloe;
• carnations.

Medicinal herbs are used to treat rashes and inside. Decoctions help strengthen immunity and prevent the attachment of a secondary infection.

St. John's wort ointment can be used in the treatment of the disease. This remedy stops itching, suppresses the inflammatory process and eliminates irritation. To make an ointment, you need to mix 5 tbsp. l. chopped St. John's wort and 500 ml vegetable oil. Next, the composition must be kept in a dark place for a month.

Essential oils of bergamot, tea tree or citrus are used as disinfectants in the treatment of the disease, which are mixed with antiviral ointments.

These methods of treatment should be agreed with the doctor. Folk remedies can provoke an allergic reaction, due to which the intensity of general symptoms increases.

Varieties of the disease

The last statistics are very disappointing: 60% of the adult population of the planet carries genital herpes - a virus that cannot be said goodbye. In most cases, a person does not feel the disease, it is asymptomatic. Where does an intimate infection come from, what are the features of the disease?

Specialists, after lengthy research, point to the factor of sexual emancipation that arose after the sexual revolution of the seventies of the last century. In European countries, the USA, Canada, Central, South America, not only genital, but also anal, oral sex began to be practiced, accelerating the process of infecting people.

According to the time of occurrence, genital herpes is divided into:

• primary (after the first episode of infection);
• recurrent or chronic (repeated cases with recurrence and subsidence of symptoms).

Genital herpes differs in the nature of the symptoms:

• Typical form - accompanied by a standard pattern of rashes on the mucous membranes in the form of vesicles with liquid.
• Atypical (subclinical) form - symptoms are present, but they are mild, pain may not be observed.
• Asymptomatic form (carriage) - characterized by the complete absence of signs of the disease. Occurs in 20% of cases. It is possible to establish such a form only on the basis of clinical studies.

The disease is also differentiated by a group of symptoms:

• erythematous form - swelling, inflammation and redness at the site of the lesion come to the fore in the symptoms;
• bullous form - the biggest problem is not rashes, but ulcers that form after the rupture of the bubbles;
• hemorrhagic form - complicated by bleeding from the urethra or from the anus;
• itchy form - the rash does not appear, but severe itching is observed at the sites of lesions, sometimes forcing the patient to comb the skin to wounds.

Recurrence rate and possible complications

The frequency of recurrence of the disease directly depends on the state of local and general immunity. A situation is considered normal when an exacerbation of genital herpes in men is noted 2-3 times a year. If the disease worries more often, the patient is sent for examination to an immunologist. Regular relapses indicate a severely weakened immune system.

In the absence of treatment, the following complications of genital herpes in men are possible:

• proctitis;
• prostatitis;
• urethritis;
• cystitis;
• tumors in the pelvic organs.

Against the background of the development of complications, the man has difficulty with urination or defecation. In addition, the course of herpes causes a weakening of local immunity, which increases the risk of secondary infection.

In extreme cases, the virus spreads throughout the body, affecting internal organs. Immunocompromised patients may develop herpetic meningitis, which leads to death.

Treatment in children

Sexual herpes virus infection cannot be cured. This disease enters the body forever and no drugs are able to completely destroy the disease-causing particles. The maximum that treatment is aimed at is reducing the frequency of relapses and eliminating symptoms.

Preparations

The main way to treat infection in men and women is to take special antiviral drugs:

• acyclovir;
• famciclovir;
• valaciclovir;
• penciclovir.

On the territory of the Russian Federation, only 3 names have been registered, and most often doctors prescribe acyclovir. The sooner therapy begins, the more effective the result will be.

With a relapsing type of the disease, it is necessary to use long-term prophylaxis. This reduces the recurrence rate by 70%.

In addition to taking drugs, there is also local therapy with the use of ointments, gels, analgesics, agents that reduce burning sensation and itching.

The diet of the patient is of great importance in the treatment. Through the consumption of healthy products, it is possible to contain the next outbreaks of the manifestation of the disease. According to studies, the infection is suppressed by the consumption of foods containing lysine, an amino acid. It can be obtained through:

• meat;
• broths;
• flounder;
• shrimps;
• yogurt;
• skim milk, etc. d.

There are also provoking substances that can keep the disease alive:

• spicy, salty, sour dishes;
• smoked meats;
• bakery products;
• chocolate;
• gelatin;
• nuts.

It is not bad to maintain immunity in a natural way by consuming foods that enhance the protective functions of the body: sweet peppers, rose hips, garlic, onions, honey, etc.

It should be noted right away that alternative methods of treatment can only serve as an addition to the main therapy. There are many recipes, but the following are especially popular:

1. Dig up fresh garlic, peel, rinse and grate on a fine grater and pour vodka (0.5 liters). Insist 7 days shaking daily, add fresh mint leaves - again in a dark place for a week. Upon completion, pour fresh currant juice (0.5 cups) into a container with the composition, drink every day a small spoonful on an empty stomach.
2. Grate fresh carrots on a fine grater, squeeze out the juice and mix with rosehip oil in a ratio of 1: 1. Lubricate the sores with the resulting mixture twice a day. As soon as they open, burst, apply a mask of white clay with walnuts crushed to a pulp on the surface. Wait until the composition dries and carefully remove with a napkin.

Therapy of the disease in a child involves taking antiviral and immunostimulating drugs. Treatment should be started as early as possible, at the first signs of the disease. It is on this fact that the effectiveness of therapy and the ability to minimize the risk of developing dangerous complications depend. The main thing in treatment is to suppress the activity of a dangerous infection. Ointments and tablets are used: acyclovir, interferon, viferon, etc.

Doctors strongly recommend drinking more warm and clean water. When the temperature rises above 38 degrees, take antipyretics.

It should be remembered that after infection with herpes, it is impossible to completely rid the body of the presence of the virus. The disease is characterized by a chronic course, when exacerbations are replaced by remissions. Moreover, the periods of remission can be different in duration. The goal of treatment is to achieve long-term remission and make exacerbations as rare and mild as possible. It is also very important to prevent the occurrence of complications.

– Ganciclovir,

– Valaciclovir,

– Farmciclovir,

– Acyclovir,

- Gefin cream.

These funds are available in several forms - ointments, capsules and tablets. Usually the doctor prescribes a combination of two drugs (an ointment for local application to the affected areas and an antiviral agent for oral administration).

Since one of the main reasons for the activation of the herpetic virus is the weakening of the body's defenses, it is advisable to pay attention to supporting immunity during the treatment process. However, many physicians believe that immunomodulating agents do not lead to a significant improvement in treatment outcomes. However, some medications (interferon, T-activin, thymalin) help the body quickly cope with an exacerbated infection and prolong the period of remission.

The success and effectiveness of treatment depends on the complex developed by the doctor and the conscientious implementation of all therapeutic measures by the patient.

Therapy of herpes infection has the following goals:

• targeted reduction of symptoms (reduction of swelling, pain, rashes and itching);
• suppression of virus reproduction during an exacerbation, which reduces the manifestations of the disease and shortens the period of relapse;
• creation of body resistance and conditions for long-term containment of the virus by increasing the duration of remission and strengthening immunity.

The main methods of therapy:

• Antiviral oral agents that prevent the reproduction of the virus (Acyclovir, Zovirax, Cyclovir, Valtrex, etc.). If you have time to take these drugs before the appearance of vesicles, then the relapse may subside immediately, limited to burning and itching. In severe cases, these funds are administered intravenously;
• Antiviral agents for topical use (Gerpeferon ointment, Panivir gel);
• Immunomodulators to enhance the immune status (Ginseng tincture, Eleutherococcus tincture, Lavomax, multivitamin preparations Vitrum, Biomax);
• Symptomatic drugs with anesthetic, antihistamine and anti-inflammatory effects (Teraflu, Ibuprofen, Ketoprofen, Fenistil);
• Non-drug methods (plasmapheresis, endovascular laser blood treatment).

Sometimes with systematic use, addiction to drugs aimed at suppressing the activity of a herpes infection occurs. In this case, the attending physician recommends the use of analogues.

During the treatment of the acute phase, sexual contacts should be limited, since therapy does not affect the ability to infect the sexual partner. In addition, sugar-containing foods, marinades, fatty and alcohol should be removed from the diet before the end of treatment. The diet should contain a lot of vegetable fiber and dairy products.

Prevention methods

To avoid the appearance of herpes in the intimate area, men should avoid unprotected sex. If an infection has occurred, it is important to support the immune system. For this it is enough:

• follow the principles of healthy eating;
• to live an active lifestyle;
• regularly take vitamin complexes;
• avoid stressful situations;
• treat comorbidities promptly.

Genital herpes is highly contagious. This type of infection enters the body through unprotected sexual intercourse. In the treatment of herpes, antiviral drugs and drugs that strengthen the body are used.

How can you get infected?

Men and women can become infected with genital herpes in the following ways:

• Transmission of the causative agent of the disease through sexual contact is the most common way. The risk of infection is the same for vaginal, oral and anal contact;
• Household transmission, if shared hygiene items with a carrier of the virus, is minimal. The risk increases significantly if there are open wounds on the body and even microscopic and imperceptible violations of the integrity of the epidermis, through which the virus is able to enter the body;
• Transmission of the virus from the mother of the child during childbirth;
• Transmission of the virus through transfusion of infected blood;
• Self-infection by accidental transfer of the virus from infected to healthy parts of the body.

During the first six months of life, babies do not get sick, this is due to the presence of maternal antibodies. If the mother was not previously infected and did not pass on her protective antibodies to the child, then children at such an early age get very sick.

Modern therapy

It is important to know that it is impossible to get rid of herpes viruses in the body, everyone has them. It’s just that under certain factors, they begin to progress and develop, which causes complications.

With genital herpes, an integrated approach is needed. That is, these are drugs (pills, suppositories, injections) that are aimed at decontaminating the body, that is, destroying the virus, healing wounds, cracks and sores, and relieving pain.

Basic drugs

To date, in medicine, the following are considered the most effective drugs in the fight against genital herpes:

• Zovirax (Acyclovir) in tablets is an antifungal and disinfectant drug with a minimum of contraindications.
• Panavir - these are antiviral tablets that are based on components of plant origin.
• Famvir - is considered a very strong drug and is prescribed in case of an advanced form of herpes.
• Ointment Gerpevir -applied externally to affected areas of the skin. Effective in combination with tablets.

Treatment regimen

There is no specific treatment regimen for male genital herpes. It is treated equally for both women and men. Medications are prescribed by a doctor, after examination and analysis. It is impossible to take and prescribe treatment on your own. The doctor will select exactly the drug that is best suited for your body.

Tablets and injections are taken as prescribed by a doctor from 5 to 10 days, depending on the degree of the disease. With progressive forms that can "hook" on other organs or systems, hospitalization is not excluded. For prevention, antiviral pills should be taken a week every 3-4 months, depending on immunity and sexual lifestyle.

In addition to pills and injections, you can take topical agents. That is, ointments, gels and creams that are designed to heal skin lesions. Usually, such preparations contain a high amount of disinfecting and wound-healing components, which, when in contact with the skin, enhance the process of regeneration of soft tissue cells and accelerate healing.

Diagnostics

There are 2 approaches to the diagnosis of this disease. The first is the diagnosis after a thorough examination. A patient who has major symptoms, including weakness, itching and small sores, should visit a doctor. An experienced specialist is able to visually determine whether these rashes are characteristic of genital herpes.

Next, you need to take a sample of the liquid. Of course, smear analysis can be inaccurate. It is considered true only within two days after the onset of symptoms. Later, the reliability of such a test is significantly reduced.

The second approach to diagnosis is not associated with examining the patient and studying the clinical manifestations of genital herpes. The following methods are used to make a diagnosis:

1. Isolation of the herpes virus. This analysis is costly and time consuming. It takes a lot of time. Accordingly, it is carried out most often for scientific purposes.
2. ELISA (enzymatic immunoassay). This method detects the presence of antibodies to the virus. It should be noted that, despite the prevalence of ELISA, the method is recognized as not the most reliable. This is because most people have class G antibodies.
3. PCR (polymerase chain reaction). This method is considered the most accurate. Any material is suitable for detecting a virus.
4. Cytological diagnostics. Previously, this method was the most reliable, but with the advent of PCR, it is practically not used.

Relief of physical condition during relapses

The active phase of the development of a herpes infection, accompanied by continuous itching and the appearance of blisters, is quite painful and causes a lot of inconvenience to a man. To lower the pain threshold and protect yourself from the spread of the virus to other mucous membranes of the body, you must strictly follow the rules of personal hygiene, as well as take into account some household tips:

• Wear loose underwear that does not squeeze the genitals and, accordingly, does not rub the wounds and does not irritate the inflamed skin. It is desirable to give preference to natural fabrics or materials with a minimum content of synthetics. Change of linen should be daily.
• Avoid touching sores and crusts, and if touched by hands, wash thoroughly with soap and water. If you cannot wash your hands right away, do not touch (or rub) your eyes, especially if contact lenses are used.
• Try to keep the infected area dry and clean to allow the skin to regenerate faster.

• To relieve pain, itching and scabies, apply cold compresses to the genital area for several minutes.
• In the presence of herpetic eruptions on the foreskin of the penis or head, it is better to urinate not standing, but sitting on the toilet seat. So you can minimize the ingress of urine on painful sores.

You shouldn't feel uncomfortable. Running to the doctor!
The virus remains in the body after the primary disease, hiding in the nervous tissue for decades in a latent form. Relapses occur in case of a strong decrease in immunity, which can be caused by hypothermia, overheating, severe stress, etc.d.

That is, it can have relapses both after a few days and after a few years, depending on the state of the body, and may never appear after the primary disease, if the patient's health remains consistently good.

In case of recurrence, skin rashes, vesicles and sores can be observed in approximately the same areas as in the initial infection. Moreover, these manifestations pass much faster, and to a much lesser extent are accompanied by unpleasant sensations. Skin rash resolves with recurrence, usually within a week.

Rarely enough, with relapses of the disease, there is a general deterioration in the condition, fever, swollen lymph nodes in the groin, headache. There may be pain when emptying the bladder.
