Question 1

Yes it is possible: Physical or mental stress and lack of sleep seems to allow the herpes to break out. Not all types f herpes are sexually transmitted, on causes the common cold sore.

Herpes type two: Herpes II is by far the most common cause of vaginal sores ("blisters?") and although soaps and lotions can cause irritation and soreness, they do not commonly cause ulcers (blisters).  Herpes II is very contagious and can be spread by sex without the partner being aware he/she has active herpes. See your healthcare provider for tests.

Unlikely to B Herpes: Non-painful blisters are not likely to be herpes.

Question 9

can i pop herpes blister?

Accepted Answer

You can, but don't.: Generally these will open and create a small ulcerated area on the skin by themselves.  If you squeeze or open them in an unsterile fashion they have a chance of becoming secondarily infected, and although i hate driving business away, you don't need added problems.
