What is the problem if there are a few small blisters on the glans?

Patient's question:

Several small blisters on the glans, turned into red spots after rinsing with clean water, with no sensation. Is there a problem?
Duration and onset of this condition: About four or five days

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it might be genital herpes. Genital herpes is a common sexually transmitted disease caused by the herpes simplex virus. Because herpes primarily occurs on the external genitalia of men or women, or in the perineal, anal, labial, gluteal regions, it is also known as herpetic vulvitis. The incubation period is usually 2 to 7 days. The primary lesions are one or more small, itchy red papules that quickly turn into small blisters. After 3 to 5 days, they form pustules, which then break down into erosion, ulcers, and crusts, accompanied by pain. The lesions can be solitary or confluent.
