When You Have Genital Herpes Does It Normally Occur In The Same Place?

I have genital herpes and I have only had one outbreak. I am constantly checking to see if I have another but I’m not exactly sure where I should be checking. I have also heard you can tell when you are getting ready to have one but does that come with experience or is it obvious?

    Usually there are some symptoms like itching, tingling or burning a couple of days before you have an out break, there can even be some shooting pains down there, even back aches or really bad head aches. If it’s really mild then it may not be all that obvious, usually the itchiness and tingling are a dead give away that you might be having another out break. Blisters / sores can occur in relatively the same place more then once. Some times I get a sore where the labia meets some times I’ll get a blister along the inside of my outer labia.
    For me I usually experience some tingling and I get itchy down there when I get a mild out break.

    Yes, it usually comes back in the same place, but can spread. It starts tingling, feeling warm down there when the virus is becoming active, but it doesnt mean you’ll actually get anything, it might just go away, dont take meds, they will only make you have more outbreaks, and cause it to spread more.

    Both. Usually you’ll feel a tingly sensation and it’s best to check yourself. It’s all about being in tuned with your body and take preventive measures such as taking daily medication. Your out breaks will be in the same place.

    it should be pretty obvious when you have one. the “telling when its about to come” is an experience thing…normally brought on by itchiness/tingling. but i never catch on lol
