no herpes has nothing to do with whiteheaRAB
WhiteheaRAB, also known as closed comedones, are follicles that are filled with the same material, but have only a microscopic opening to the skin surface. Since the air cannot reach the follicle, the material is not oxidized, and remains white.
cold sores or genital herpes sores will start as a very sensitive pimple like bump/blister and then will open. Depending on how long you or the person has had herpes ..usually determines how long it will take the sore to heal. If you are new to the virus, it can take quite awhile. The longer you've had it the shorter the outbreaks last. Once the sore is gone it is gone till the next ob. You may have had a whitehead near where the sore was and never realized it
