    how does it feel? is it very sorry?

    what happened leading up to the blister? fever, generally unwell?

    its hard to say from a picture its herpes but it does look classic of it from the blisters.

      no fever, didnt feel sick at all. blisters only hurt on one day and the other days it was fine. they appeared a lot on monday/tuesday but then went away fairly quickly and only have the 3-4 sores as of yesterday.

      hopefully it is bacterial then!

      good luck with your results 😃

      Hey Darah,

      I know it can be very scary however, if you read some forums most say HSV1 genitally is almost the "Herpes Jackpot" usually HSV1 genitally only sheds 2-4% of the year after having the virus for a little while. credible information can be found on west over heights forum.
