yes, herpes comes with a rash. now the rash is not specific to herpes but it gives you a clue. the charateristic of the herpes rash is the distribution. first the nature of the rash. the rash is called vesicular. so its erythematous (red) and filled with clear fluid, it is itchy and some times painful. however, this maybe any other type of rash. the distinctive feature of herpes rash is like i said, the distribution. every time herpes has a flair up it would appear in the same place, along a dermatome (distribution of a particular nerve). so if you find a red clear filled rash that is localized to one area (lets say the lower back or face) then its most probably herpes, and if it keeps occurring in that place, then all the more your sure its herpes. P.S this is not the case for herpes zoster a.k.a shingles yes, herpes comes with a rash. now the rash is not specific to herpes but it gives you a clue. the charateristic of the herpes rash is the distribution. first the nature of the rash. the rash is called vesicular. so its erythematous (red) and filled with clear fluid, it is itchy and some times painful. however, this maybe any other type of rash. the distinctive feature of herpes rash is like i said, the distribution. every time herpes has a flair up it would appear in the same place, along a dermatome (distribution of a particular nerve). so if you find a red clear filled rash that is localized to one area (lets say the lower back or face) then its most probably herpes, and if it keeps occurring in that place, then all the more your sure its herpes.

after herpes I've a sort of rash left how can i cure it
Herpes outbreaks start as a reddened area of skin. Then blisters arise, which then become sores.
Dermatitis herpertiformis is a chronic blistering skin rash, characterized by blisters filled with a watery fluid. DH is not related to or caused by herpes virus. That is a skin inflammation having an appearance similar to herpes.
Herpes is unlikely to start on your armpits, and any symmetrical rash found in both armpits is certainly not herpes. See your health care provider for effective diagnosis and treatment.
Well their is herpes. There can be a red rash in the area of your crouch. It well be red and itchy. You can also get pimples and lumps their as well.
With any luck, the treatment may decrease the risk of the rash appearing. It will certainly reduce the severity of any rash.
I just took my first does of this med, 150mg, and a rash has broken out on my stomach. Has this happened to anyone else. I see that there can be serious side effects from this drug.
There are several different types of the herpes virus. If located on the stomach, I would guess Chicken pox or Shingles, with Shingles being the most likely. In people that have previously had the Chicken pox virus, shingles is the reactivation of the same virus in the nerve endings under the skin. This causes a rash and blisters and is contagious to those that have not been vaccinated for Chicken pox. If it is painful and itchy, see a doctor.
Rash guards were initially developed for Surfers to protect the chest and stomach from a rash. This rash develops when the chest and stomach rub on the waxed surfboard. Rash Guards are now made with a coating to protect from the suns harmful UV rays. They are ideal because they are comfortable to wear and dry quickly.
Any time you get an itchy red rash on your stomach out of the clear blue, that's a pretty good reason to see a doctor. If not then, when?
If you have a pet, it could be flea bites or something else I am not familiar with.
