Dude, you need to get your viruses straight. HPV does not produce visible lesions usually. However, genital herpes produces lesions and typically occurs in outbreaks when the person is under stress. Herpes is treatable with oral medication, whereas, the other has to be frozen off. In women, HPV typically leads to cervical cancer (thus, the reason for yearly pap smears in a sexually active woman , especially if she has been with multiple men) Go to a doctor and figure it out!! ------------------------------------------- Just friendly advice from your neighborhood doc...
