Herpes Virus is Not self-resolving and no one should be giving that type of advice. If what you have happens to be herpes, you need to see a doctor. They can do blood tests to find out for sure and treat you with anti-viral medications if the tests comes back positive. It may not be herpes at all, but if the issue has not resolved itself, you need to see your doctor. Herpes is a life-long disease and if you're still having problems or have any doubt, PLEASE see your doctor. I live with Herpes Simplex 2 myself and it is something you will want and need to know, trust me. Good luck to you and I hope everything works out well.

In Genital herpes it presents as a genital sore(ulcer like). Seen within 3-7 days of infection. Can be seen as a blister as well. Most of the times it is self resolving and you need not worry. I got this answer after chatting with the doctor on this site.
