In a primary stage usually starts 2 to 8 days after you are infected, but it can take much longer time to begin. Usually, the infection causes groups of small, painful, itching blisters. The fluid in the blisters may be clear or yellow. The area under the blisters will be red. This type of blister you may not see before. The blister break opens so easily that they quickly become open sores.
Out of that having tender blisters or sores in your genital area, it may hurt to urinate. You may run a fever. While most people have a painful primary stage of this infection, on the other hand, some don't have any symptoms at all. They do not even know that they are infected.
Latent stage :

Shedding stage :
In the shedding stage, the virus starts multiplying in the nerve endings. It the affected nerve endings are in areas of the body that make or are in contact with body fluids, the virus can get into those body fluids such as saliva, semen. There are no symptoms during this stage, but the virus may be spread during this time.
