[|AI|]  Hello, welcome to Chat Doctor, Genital herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus. Most individuals carrying herpes are unaware they have been infected and many will never suffer an outbreak which involves blisters. As you are having genital herpes for the first time, you may have to consult your dermatologist. As you are not able to consult your doctor for another one week I would suggest you to follow1. Keep the affected area clean and Chat Doctor. Apply an ice pack wrapped in a cloth.3. You can apply Vaseline over the lesion4.
