There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause sores around the mouth (herpes labialis) and on the genitals (genital herpes). Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Cold sores sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal in several days to 2 weeks.
The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid—such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.

Herpes is spread through direct contact. So, a genital herpes infection will stay in the area it originated unless transferred elsewhere via direct contact or skin-to-skin transference. Herpes won't just show up on its own somewhere else on the body. Because herpes is spread through direct contact, it is important to avoid contact with infected areas. If a herpes infection is not localized, further complications may occur. For instance, a Herpes infection in the eyes can lead to severe complications, including blindness.

So it can show up as several sores on different areas of your body but only if there has been skin on skin contact with an already infected area.

Answer 5

Herpes come in a cluster of small blisters. I thought I has a yeast infection but to my surprise I had herpes and was happily married I thought. Since then 15yrs now, I have had a child and haven't had a out break in years. I have remarried and my husband is not infected nor is my child. If you think it is something get it checked out. Good Luck

Answer 6

It can be one sore or many, it just depends on the person. Sometimes they also appear as shallow ulcers, without a "blister" appearance. See your doctor if you think you have herpes. There is a culture than can be done to confirm this, but it has to be done while you have a sore.

Answer 7

Since the virus is transmitted by virus-containing secretions from the oral or genital mucosa, the primary lesion is at the primary site of infection. Common sites of infection include the shaft and head of the penis, scrotum, inner thighs, and anus in men; and the labia, vagina, cervix, anus, and inner thighs in women. The mouth can also be a site of infection in both sexes.

Prior to the appearance of blisters, the infected individual can experience increased skin sensitivity, tingling, burning, or pain at the site where the blisters will appear. The skin becomes reddened and multiple small blisters (vesicles) filled with a clear straw-colored fluid appear. The blisters break leaving shallow painful ulcers which eventually crust over and slowly heal over a period of 7 to 14 days. The outbreak may be accompanied by enlargement and tenderness of the lymph nodes in the groin or inguinal fold. Women may develop vaginal discharge and painful urination (dysuria). Men may have dysuria if the lesion is near the opening of the urethra (meatus).
