About Blisters
Blisters are small pockets of fluid in the upper layers of skin. They are caused by friction, burns, freezes or chemicals. The fluid inside the blister, called serum, is usually clear and made of plasma. If a blister becomes infected, they can fill with pus. Blisters that fill with blood? You got it, blood blisters. If you get a blister, don't pop it, the plasma not only provides lubrication but aids in cell division to make new skin.
About Herpes
Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the herpes simplex viruses type 1, or most commonly, type 2. Most people show no, or minimal symptoms from HSV-1 or HSV-2 infection. When the symptoms do appear, it’s usually as blisters on or around the genitals and rectum. The blisters soon break, leaving sores that can take up to a month to heal the first time the occur. More outbreaks can occur months after the first, but are usually shorter and less severe. It is still possible to spread herpes between outbreaks. For this reason, it is imperative that persons infected with herpes always take precautions like wearing a condom to prevent the spread of the disease.
