Is it possible to have swollen lympthnodes in the groin with recurrent outbreaks?

Hi Laydielov,

My nodes have been swollen since September, probably had a handful of days where I haven't been aware of how tender they feel.

Blue.

I have only had my primary, but I remember having those swollen glands and i remember them being tender and sore at times...

I had swollen groin lymph nodes for a long time, but only at my initial ob.....the nodes, stayed swollen for months!!!!!!

Ditto for me on the swollen nodes, they seemed to be swollen and/or tendar for about 6 months. I have had herpes for going on almost 3 years now and sometimes I have no outbreak but still tendarness in the nodes in my groin.....I think that is a sign of the outbreak but who knows? Sorry to hear you are enduring this stage of herpes. Take care

Yup. Me too. I had my first ob about 6 weeks ago. Almost all of my symptoms have more or less disappeared, or at least gotten better except for the swollen gland in my groin, on one side only. The tenderness is not constant but I notice it now and then. It gets worse when I do a lot of walking, or if I feel itching or tingling on my vulva. Maybe I am having minor ob's now. It seems to travel into my pelvis sometimes. I was worried about it, but after reading all these replies I guess it is rather common. Hope you feel better soon!

Me too - I feel like once these swollen nodes have gone away, in a few days they reappear. I've got no sores, though! Does anyone do anything to relieve it? I was looking online today about swollen lymph glands and the lymphatic system in general and bought an herbal remedy that is supposed to specifically support the lymphatic system and relieve swollen glands. I'll let you know if it works.
