Herpes is a disease caused by HSV (herpes simplex virus) of 2 types, well-known as HSV-1 and HSV-2. These 2 types of herpes virus evoke two types of illnesses, famous as oral and genital herpes. Herpes symptoms are different according to the kind of herpes. You should also remember that after a person is initially infected the viruses move to afferent nerves and become hidden and stay in a human body life-long. Some people live their whole life not realizing that they're infected with herpes simplex virus, because no herpes symptoms are shown. Visible symptoms of oral herpes are generally defined as fever blisters or cold sores that come out on mouth and face. This kind of virus is transmitted as respiratory and droplet infections. In such a way, a person can become infected in the course of an ordinary personal contact with an infected person if the disease is in the exacerbation stage. Genital herpes is determined by appearance of genital warts. In case you aren't sure if you've been infected with herpes or it's a different infection, it's highly recommended that you visited a doctor. Have a closer look at genital warts pictures in order to get a clear understanding of visual herpes symptoms. It's quite logical that genital herpes virus is transmitted via sexual contacts with an infected person. Sometimes people consider that it's not possible to become infected with herpes virus after a single sex performance. But you have to realize that this virus is highly contagious, in such a way in case you're going to have a sexual performance with a person you aren't sure of, you should think of having a condom. Up to the moment no medicine that is able to completely remove the virus from the organism has not been invented. Once infected, the virus will remain in human organism for the whole life. But nevertheless there are medicinal preparations that are able to suppress the activity of herpes virus for about five to ten years. Herpes symptoms won't be shown during this time. |
