Herpes Blisters - The Most Common Signs of Herpes Outbreak
Herpes blisters are one of the most common signs of a herpes outbreak. Whether you have herpes type 1 or herpes type 2, you will probably get blisters at some point. These can be very painful, and take a while to heal.
Herpes type 1 blisters are usually on the mouth. They may only come one at a time, which is a relief for most people. When you get what is commonly known as a cold sore, that is actually herpes.
The best thing you can do for a cold sore is to go to your local drug store and ask the pharmacist for a medicine that will help the sore to heal.
Herpes blisters are a lot more painful and sever whey you have HSV-2. This outbreak occurs in the genital region. In women, the blisters can cover the lips of the vagina, the cervix, urethra, and anus. In men, the blisters can cover the penis, urethra, and anus.
If you’ve ever had any kind of sore or even pimple in that area, you know how painful it can be. Now imagine that every part of your genital area is covered. If you are infected with the herpes virus, you unfortunately already know the feeling.
The sore you get as a result of herpes can be quite large and painful. If you’re hoping they hang around for a few days and go away like a cold sore, you’re out of luck. Herpes blisters in the genital region can last for up to a month.
When they get large enough, they may even burst open and secrete pus. I’m sure your stomach is turning over right now. This pus will hardened, and act as a protective barrier until your sores heal over.
Do not pick at the crust or the healing process will be held up. If you thought waiting a few weeks was bad, imagine how long you’ll have to wait for the sores to heal if you pick at them. You may think you’re helping them to go away faster, but that is simply not the case.
If you notice sores like this, but haven’t been diagnosed yet, you’ll definitely want to see your doctor. There are a few tests they can perform to see if you have herpes or if something else is the culprit.
Herpes blisters are not easy to deal with. They can be painful and difficult to heal properly. The best thing you can do is work out a plan with your doctor, and get on with your life.
