There was an unwanted guest running amok at Coachella this year ... herpes.

If you were lucky enough to go to Coachella this year then you may just want to pay a visit to your doctor and get checked for STDs because an outbreak in Herpes happened this year!

According to HerpAlert, which is an online diagnosis and treatment website for STDS, there was a spike in people looking for herpes treatment during the festival in California's surrounding cities.

Apparently since Day 1 of Coachella this year they had almost 1,1-5 reported cases in Indio, Palm Desert, and Coachella Valley. HerpAlert almost had about 250 patients each day of Coachella!

At least you will always remember Coachella, just maybe not for the reasons you expected to!
