[Do herpes blisters need to pop?]

That is what I thought. My doctor didn't explain anything to me and she wasn't the one that told me, her nurse did, so I have to poke around for answers. Thank you!

[Do herpes blisters need to pop?]

I've been using baking soda and not wearing underwear. But I was told that it needed to pop but it looks like it is drying up now.

[Do herpes blisters need to pop?]

This would be the second outbreak I've noticed. I googled this question and could not seem to find a straight answer. Do herpes blisters need to pop? I have seen one site say to do it yourself (which I know not too) and many say to not do it yourself, but none about if they need to or not in order to heal. I learned what triggered it but I didn't think about it when I was doing it (I tanned 5 days before I noticed it).

 

Thanks!

[need some advice and just answers]

I wanted to show my boyfriend that part on transmission after reading it and maybe that's why he hasn't gotten anything yet. Im a little afraid that if he doesnt have it, he might leave me. I was bored one day and googled that there are dating sites for people with STDs. I don't know how legit or good they are though.

[Diet Considerations for Herpes?]

Now that I'm thinking about it, I did eat A LOT of chocolate around the time of my period. I wonder if that had anything to do with mine. I've never had a problem with caffeine or nuts but I'm sure everyone is different. I read on multiple sites that kelp vitamins may help and I already had them so I started taking them daily.

None of the pictures looked like it. I am trying to find a new job to cut out the stress and exercising more/eating better to cut out the bad habits and bad food Thank you!

We're probably going to discuss it all this weekend and do some research. It was only surprising because I have been in the same amount of stress for at least a year and I got it after my period, which I've been getting regularly for a long time. Nothing new had happened to me, maybe a little more stress and I've been trying to eat healthier. He's had no symptoms and we've been having unprotected sex for over a year and a half so I want him to get tested just in case. I guess genetics would be a thing because my mom has HSV1 and I don't really see her with cold sores. Maybe both of our immune systems are strong. He definitely is a keeper though!

I just found out I have herpes earlier this week. I am pretty sure I know where it came from and it was 2 years ago. I've come to terms with it but I was just confused about some things. This is the first time I have ever noticed anything so I didn't think anything about it when the pain started, I thought I had scratched myself, but I only had two symptoms, which was pain and 2 sores. My gynecologist said it didn't look like herpes but she tested anyway. In the past I have noticed slight itching that would only last like a night but I switched detergents and it stopped so I never thought anything about it. I didn't think my immune system was that strong to hold it back for 2 years. Both me and my boyfriend have been faithful and he seems pretty relaxed about it.

 

Either way, has anyone ever experienced only having 1-2 symptoms or the Valtrex getting rid of it after two days? I think he wants me to get a blood test or retested like it was a false positive. He has never had symptoms. Thank you.
