A member asked:
What is the healing process for a herpes blister on a newborn face? how long does till the blister bursts to a scab?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If herpes: see Doc!: Herpes in newborn infants is a very serious issue that needs prompt asap evaluation and testing-especially if your infant is sick. Herpes may be only on the skin at this time, however, it can spread throughout the entire body (disseminated herpes). This in turn can affect the brain, liver, lungs, and kidneys. Please have this sorted out asap!
