Signs of herpes tend to develop within 3-7 days of skin-to-skin contact with an infected person. Herpes infections look like small blisters or ulcers (round areas of broken skin) on the genitals. Each blister or ulcer is typically only 1-3 millimeters in size, and the blisters or ulcers tend to be grouped into "crops." Usually the blisters form first then soon open to form ulcers. Herpes infections may be painless or slightly tender. In some people, however, the blisters or ulcers can be very tender and painful.
Location
In men, herpes sores (lesions) usually appear on or around the penis.
In women, the lesions may be visible outside the vagina, but they commonly occur inside the vagina where they can cause discomfort or vaginal discharge but cannot be seen except during a doctor's examination.
The ulcers or blisters may also be found anywhere around the genitals (the perineum) and in and around the anus.
First outbreak
The first herpes outbreak is usually the most painful, and the initial episode may last longer than later outbreaks.
Some people develop other signs of herpes infection, particularly with the first episode.
Fever
Muscle aches
Headaches (may be severe)
Vaginal discharge or painful urination
Swollen and tender lymph glands in the groin (glands swell as the body tries to fight the infection)

I got clinically diagnosed with herpes (type 2) about 4 yrs ago, whilst I was still attending college and had a foolish one-night stand. I know loads of young women say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a huge mistake that one time and suddenly it seemed like I was going to have to live with the consequences for my entire life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date men again. In the end, who wants to go out with someone who has sores round her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/ed34j everything changed.
Not only was I able to remove all remnants of the hsv from my system in less than three weeks, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so blessed to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This system provided me the opportunity to be happy and experience real love again. Now I want to help others too by sharing this story.
