If you had chickenpox as a child, you can have pain, generated by the latent virus. It does not always make vesicles or rash.
I am also of the opinion that herpes can do it too, since they are related.
If the lysine works for you, I'd take that as a sign!
There is a diet to balance arginine/lysine.

One wants to keep arginine lower in ratio to lysine if one has a history of any herpes.
