The likelihood of getting sick increases significantly if one of the partners has a "blistering cold" on the lips. 3-10 days after infection, the pubis is affected, small pimples filled with clear liquid appear on it, which cause burning and itching in the groin area. Less often, there is aching in the lower back, nagging pain or malaise. Pimples caused by the herpes virus are filled with fluid and eventually begin to burst. In place of the acne, ulcers remain that heal without leaving any traces. If a person has had herpes at least once in his life, the virus remains in the body for the rest of his life, so relapses are possible. The occurrence of relapses depends entirely on the person's immunity. They can be provoked by acute respiratory infections, pregnancy, hypothermia or even ordinary stress. Contagious molluscum.
