Just wondering what has been your experiences with reoccurrences? Is it always a blister, or sore? What if its a bump that doesnt burst? Is it always painful or have to be painful to be considered herpes? I find a lot of info about initial outbreaks but not much about later outbreaks.

    hey my 1st outbreak was Aug 2018 and i had my 2nd April 2019

    1st - 7 sores - 7 days

    2nd - 1 sore and it was tiny tiny, 2 days.

    lately though i have experianced intense tingling, that seems to be driving my paranoid.

    i use a cream at the slight itch, and on sores and for me the healing of sores has been quick. x

    hi, for me it just started as a bad itch then i had a red spot in the vaginal area. it wasnt too painful but it stung when i would sit down or when i peed (so i would pee standing up). i took valtrex for 3 days and it went away by the 3rd day.
