Itching, Sore On Inner Thighs, Armpits, Knees, Rectum. Remedy?
I think I contracted the genital herpes virus about 4 years ago. I have never sought medical attention, but I am very itchy with no sores though on my inner thighs, under my armpits on the inside of my elbows the back of my knees, and my rectum. I am more itchy at night, and find relieve only with cold packs. This has become torture for me, are there any foods to prevent it or any holistic remedies
