Hi Sir, One unprotected oral exposure without my knowledge two years ago (2016) lasted 2-3 mins. I got inflamed redness on penis just sensitive to touch no blisters or swelling. I applied turmeric topically to the spots one on glans and other on shaft scabbed very next day. Once I tried to remove scab on glans I noticed pus coming out. On the very next day I peeled the scab off. I don't know whether it happened before exposure or not. I convinced that I got after it but i am not sure. 1.Does herpes primary outbreak heal in two days without flu like symptoms? When turmeric applied topically? Does herpes respond to turmeric? 2.No symptoms till now (Oct 2018) 3.after two years I did hsv 1&2 igg CLIA 0.58 <0.90 Negative on August and hsv 1&2 igg ELISA 0.35 < 0.80 Negative 4. If it responds to turmeric what it could be bacterial/fungal infection or viral infection? 5.results are conclusive or I need to retest? Please spend your valuable time and help me out sir. Thankful to you all.
