Exacerbation is often preceded by warning symptoms. Most people, who are worsening, are well aware of these symptoms. They allow you to take steps that help prevent relapse, such as avoiding sexual intercourse. Often this symptom is a burning or tingling sensation on the skin where the rash will appear. Some people feel a general deterioration of health: fever, pain in joints and muscles, depression. For others the pain and swelling of inguinal lymph nodes. Sometimes it is a pain in the groin, buttocks, thighs, the back of the legs and genital area. This pain, called neuralgia, can be quite noticeable. Sometimes the warning signs, especially neurology, worried more than the self-sharpening.

Often the first sign of deterioration is a reddening of the skin. A few hours later formed bubbles, and then the sores that heal through the formation of crusts (only on the skin; recall that on mucous crusts are not formed).

For many people, a warning symptoms or a slight reddening of the skin, but the aggravation ends in a few hours without blisters or sores. At this time, a person can be contagious. The frequency and severity of exacerbations with different people and at the same person at different times are different. As during the first manifestation of infection with recurrent rash can affect different areas: for example, groin, scrotum and vulva. If, during the preceding exacerbation of the rash was in the rectal area, following the aggravation of rash may also appear in this place. Rash on buttocks and thighs during relapse is common, even if the first manifestation of Rash on buttocks was not here presented.

Pain in the relapse is usually small, little bubbles. More concerned about discomfort during urination, and after him, especially if there are sores in the urethra canal. In average aggravation lasts about a week, but may last only 2-3 days.
