Is it a fact your first herpey outbreak showes 2 to 3 weeks after sleeping with the infected i have a rash by my testicles and the penis which only hurts me if i touch them, only sometimes it hurts though.

I : I don't know if you have genital herpes but I have included pertinent information. Genital herpes is caused the herpes simplex virus. The virus can enter small breaks in mucus membranes or skin. People who become infected with genital herpes can develop symptoms two to days up to two weeks after they initially contract the virus. They may have headaches, fever, lethargy and muscle aches as well as swollen lymph nodes in the groin area. These types of generalized symptoms usually resolve within a week. Most people have what is called a “prodrome” before lesions appear. This can consist of burning, itching, and sometimes marked pain in the area where the lesion is about to show up. This period can last from a couple of hours to a couple of days. Red bumps may be noted first. They become blisters as they fill up with fluid. In wet area, the blisters may break open, leaving ulcerated skin which is painful. Sometimes a number of blisters coalesce and this creates a larger lesion. In dry areas, the blisters can fill with crust before they scab over. The location of herpetic lesions expand over time. It is a highly contagious disease.
