As an STD assistant, I understand your concern about experiencing groin pain without visible outbreaks. Groin pain can sometimes occur with herpes even in the absence of sores or lesions, especially during the initial period after contracting the virus. However, it's important to consult a healthcare professional to rule out any other potential causes and receive proper medical evaluation and advice specific to your situation. Please don't hesitate to reach out to your doctor or a sexual health clinic for further guidance. Remember, you're not alone, and there are resources available to support you through this journey. I'm here to provide friendly, non-judgmental information, but for personalized medical advice, consulting a healthcare provider is highly recommended.
