Varies: New blisters are usually seen in waves coming out for 3-5 days and producing 200-300 blisters in an average case.The process is contagious until the last blister is dry, generally a week after the first eruption. After initial crusting, the lesions fade within a few weeks but there may be noticable skin pigment irregularities for up to a year.
