A member asked:
Is it possible for a hsv 2 lesion to pop before even noticing the blister?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: People may not notice a lesion until it has "popped", but then it will look like a lesion with a tiny bit of surface skin missing in the central area where it "popped". Herpes usually is a cluster of tiny lesions that together look like a larger lesion.
