I've just found out my HSV 1 and 2 IgG count is 30.0 positive, but I haven't had any symptoms at all. The only reason I got tested was because my partner started having herpes lesions. Should I be worried about my health going forward? I'm already on medication, but I'm still pretty concerned.

I've been dealing with this rash that appears on one or both of my upper thighs for years now. It's not always there, but when it shows up, it tends to stick around for months. It usually starts out as one or two small circles and then spreads to a much larger area over a week or two. It's not painful, just a bit elevated. It never scabs or blisters, though it only itches when I scratch it or something touches it. I find it quite unsightly and really want to figure out what this could be. Any ideas?

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
