hello! They were most soft except one was harder until it popped. you explained its better today which is good! the outbreak normally lasts 7 days. if u get it tested and get the valtrex medication it works wonders if u have any more outbreaks.
it is expensive so go to costco!! they sell it the cheapest!!!
it can lay dormant for years or forever depending on the person. i got like 6 outbreaks the first year and now i rarely have any.
private message me if u want to know more

hello!
QUESTION for everyone. how long does the "blister" (bump) normally last until it burst or gains fluid?
do they just appear as open sores at first? or aways appears as bumps? can u remember the first time u noticed a bump and how long the first bump lasted until fluid filled the "bump"?
are there any characteristics that u can think of when u see a blister?
i have a bump for like 3 weeks now. doesnt look like it changed, if i look very closely i see a white lil white dot in the middle. doc says its nothing, to worry about...
sexual encounters: none for quite some time

Thanks elaine. 😃 and mil.. for me it appeared as the first picture is. The bumps lasted for several hours (6h?) and then break. Pictures that I have uploaded are in order, so it is easy to follow the progression. However, if you have had the bump for that long, probably isn't herpes. All the best!

that's definitely herpes but your almost done the outbreak. once it pops it will slowly disappear. i still recommend going to get it tested so they can perscribe valtrex.
