Brief Answer:
Urinary track infection possible

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

This doesn't seem related to HSV 2. Most probably you are having an urinary track infection. You may need to do an urine analysis and uroculture. Antibiotics may be needed as treatment.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards
