A member asked:
If someone gets herpes 1 on their genitals and they don't have any other form or herpes, when will the symptoms appear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Herpes Symptoms: The herpes virus can lay dormant for various time periods and may be in your system for a time period before any symptoms begin to show. The usual incubation period of the virus (time before any symptoms show) is approximately two to twelve days after the first exposure to the virus. However, there are many possibilities. Some people never experience active symptoms.
