For those people who experience more severe symptoms, an outbreak of genital herpes commonly consists of blisters or sores (like cold-sores) on or around your genitals. If you have concerns, or think you may have genital herpes, talk to your doctor.

Classic symptoms of oral herpes can appear as a single blister or cluster of blisters ("cold sores") on the lips but may ... occur on other areas around the face such as the cheeks, chin, or nose. Subtle oral HSV symptoms can be easily mistaken for another infection or condition such as a small crack or cut in the skin, chapped lips, bug bite, or a pimple, to name a few examples.

After the primary infection, the herpes virus travels along the nerves and becomes dormant within nerve cells. The virus is reactivated during times of stress, and travels back out through the same pathway, causing characteristic recurring crops of blisters.

Those with suppressed immune systems are likely to have more frequent and severe recurring episodes of genital herpes. They may ... have more asymptomatic outbreaks (where the virus travels up the nerve to the surface of the skin but causes no blisters) during which time the virus can be passed on.

See a doctor at once if you suspect that your newborn may have herpes. A pediatrician should evaluate blistering sores, symptoms of eye infection, or generalized illness with lethargy or neurological signs in a newborn at once, even if the mother has no known history of herpes.
