A member asked:
Had hsv-1 in my nose for 3 wks. i have really sticky, yellowish mucus (just a little) that seems to stick to the inside of my nose. is that normal?

Yes: What you described is likely a mixture of exudate from the herpes vesicles and mucus. It should clear out in a few days. If the herpes rash appears too often, you should see your doctor for evaluation and treatment.
