Most people with genital herpes have no symptoms or have very mild symptoms. Mild symptoms may go unnoticed or be mistaken for other skin conditions like a pimple or ingrown hair.

Herpes sores usually appear as one or more blisters on or around the genitals, rectum or mouth. When present near the rectum or genitals, the infection is classified as genital herpes. Both strains of the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2) can cause genital or oral herpes. Regardless of location, the presence of blisters is known as having an “outbreak.” The blisters break and leave painful sores that may take a week or more to heal. Flu-like symptoms (e.g. fever, body aches, or swollen glands) also may occur during the first outbreak.

When blisters appear on the mouth, it is referred to as oral herpes (commonly known as cold sores). Both strains of the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2) can cause genital or oral herpes.. The blisters break and leave painful sores that may take a week or more to heal. Flu-like symptoms (e.g. fever, body aches, or swollen glands) also may occur during the first cold sore outbreak.
