| Herpes is a disease caused by herpes simplex virus of 2 types, known as HSV-1 and HSV-2. The 2 types of viruses evoke two kinds of diseases, famous as oral herpes and genital herpes. Herpes symptoms differ according to the type of herpes. You should also know that after initial infection the virus moves to sensory nerves where they become latent and stay in a human organism for the whole life. Some people live their whole life not realizing that they are infected with herpes virus, as no herpes symptoms are revealed. Visual symptoms of oral herpes virus are usually described as cold sores or fever blisters that come out on mouth and face. This kind of virus is transmitted by respiratory and droplet ways. In this way, a person may become infected during a simple personal contact with an infected person if the disease is in its exacerbation stage. Genital herpes is recognized by appearance of genital warts. In case you aren't sure whether you've been infected with herpes virus or it is a different infection, it is strongly advised that you visited a doctor. Have a closer look at genital warts pictures in order to obtain a clear understanding of visual symptoms of genital herpes. It is quite logical that genital herpes is transmitted through sex performance with an infected person. Some people suppose that it's not possible to get infected with herpes virus after just a single sex contact. But you have to realize that this virus is highly contagious, so if you're planning to have a sexual performance with a person you aren't sure of, you should think of using a condom. Up to the moment no medicinal product that is capable of complete elimination of the herpes virus from the organism has not been created. Once infected, the virus remains in the person's organism during the whole life. But still there are medicinal products that are able to suppress the activity of herpes for about 5 to 10 years. The symptoms of herpes won't be apparent during this time. |
