Primary genital herpes: After the patient is infected with the genital herpes virus, after a latent period of 4 to 5 days, a burning sensation will appear in the vulva, followed by the appearance of groups of papules, which can be one or more clusters, and then blisters will occur. After a few days, they will become pustules, which will rupture and form erosions, with a sense of pain.
