What Does Herpes Look Like

'What does herpes look like ?' is a question that is often asked but unfortunately doesn't have an exact answer. The problem is that herpes symptoms are slightly different with each person it affects. A doctor will be able to make a diagnosis but will also need to carry out additional tests to confirm it.

If you want to give yourself an idea of what to look for then please see the photos on these pages:

A Site For Herpes Sufferers

Welcome all, to this blog about herpes. The main aim is to provide as many images of herpes as possible so that you can hopefully identify if you have this debilitating disease. Many people ask me “what herpes actually looks like”, and when I tell them they often are still unsure if that’s what they have. Therefore this site was created so that people can see for themselves the various states this disease can have on the body.

I must state now that if you have any abnormalities with your body you should consult your doctor immediately. More often than not people make the wrong self diagnosis which leads to increased anxiety and stress or worse still they think they are ok when actually they have a serious illness.
