Genital herpes

Herpes virus type 1 (HSV 1) usually affects the mucosa of the lips, mouth and skin of the face in the form of painful erosions and vesicles. Moreover, it can also be the cause of genital herpes, transmitted as a result of oral sex. A person can get infected with herpes virus if his skin, genitals or lips and mouth cavity gets in contact with a genital herpes virus infected individual.

An increased probability of contracting genital herpes occurs when there is contact with a person with manifestations of infection. However, this infection can also occur if the herpes carrier has no external manifestations. HSV 1 and 2 carriers may not even suspect that they have contracted the virus.
