question for people with confirmed HSV-2 and outbreaks

by awnsermeplease, Jun 18, 2008 10:55PM
do the outbreaks or the "pimples" you get when you have an outbreak typically have a hair in the center of them? as when the blisters are in the stage where they look like a white head pop and contain fluid (white or clear fluid) i was just wondering if this was a common thing with sores and do you tend to get them anywhere else such as stomach legs etc? thanks all info is apperciated oh and how long do your outbreaks last? ive heard over a week or so is abnormal for an outbreak to stick around. or continue spreading around

This sounds like folliculitis, not herpes.  

A typical herpes ob will last no longer than a couple of weeks, tops.  I think the average is about a week.
