How long do a herpes rush stay on your chest?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unusual: Is this herpes simplex (odd location), or herpes zoster (only on one side of body in nerve root distribution)? Either, if the diagnosis is correct should not last longer than 10-14 days, but this depends on many factors including your immune status and whether this is primary or recurrent infection, etc.
