How do you know the difference between Genetal Herpes and Shingles?

angel09 asked:


I have both - both itchy and painful. I haven't had an outbreak for a VERY long time. I had shingles when I was 15 (a small patch on my stomach) and now it seems I might have them again. I have a small patch of liquid blisters on my very lower back (right hand side)... it accellerates faster than people say shingles does but the pain runs down my legs to my feet. This is uncommon with genetal herpes. I have heard of genetal herpes popping up around the thy and butt region. I'm a little confused. Can anyone help me out? Thank you!
Thanks for the answers guys :) I know shingles fairly well because it was very rare for me to have them in the first place. There isn't much a dr can do but give you pain medication. Thanks again.
