Famvir Script
Dear Dr. Rob:
I need to know if a form of herpes can affect the inside of my penis as blister like sores have been breaking out since last July. I have been to the health dept and been tested negative for any STDs, but they gave me a prescription for Famvir. I’m at a loss as to where to turn my search as to what I may have.
Thanks,
James G
Dr. Rob’s Response:
Dear James G:
Yes, it is possible to have any kind of lesion with herpes. I would suggest a Herpes Select Test to determine whether it is Herpes Type 1 or Herpes Type 2. If it is, the Famvir should suppress the development of lesions. If it is not working, it is most likely it is not herpes, but again testing is of paramount importance.
