What Causes Achy Joints,itching In Genital Area & Pain In Inguinal Lymphnode?
Last tuesday I woke up and was not able to move my neck. It was excruciating pain. I was told I had several pinched nerves. The next day I had some mild itching in my genital area and pain in my right inguinal lymphnode I assumed it was a yeast infection and did a monistat treatment. It did not get better. The pain became unbearable, and it felt like I had a cyst.Also my left lymphnode also was hurting badly. I went to the emergency room, where they then said I had several ulcers and told me I had an STD. I know an STD isn't possible. Also for weeks , I have had achy joints and feel exhausted all the time. What else could this be?
Hi, I did review your concern. your problem most likely represents an STD with a reactive arthritis along with it seen in many patients. Other thing that can be a possibility with genital ulcers and joint ache and can mimic STD is behcet disease which is an autoimmune disorder. i would advice you to consult a rheumatologist in this regard and get yourself evaluated for behcet disease. also i would advice you to get checked for ulcer causing STD like herpes and syphilis and chancroid. I hope this helps wish you great health.
