There are two kinds of herpes simplex virus. One can cause ulcers around the mouth (herpes simplex, cold ulcers, lip ulcers); The other can cause genital herpes. Any of the above viruses will cause infection if they contact the skin or tissues near the vagina. Once you are infected with this disease, you may become terminally ill. "Cold ulcer" may occur repeatedly for several years.
Herpes is caused by contact with the mucous membrane or saliva of an infected person, usually through sexual intercourse. Although herpes patients may have ulcers around the genitals or mouth, most cases have no symptoms. After infection, the onset takes 2-10 days, usually lasting for several years.
Symptoms:
Many women have no symptoms when infected with herpes, or only feel a little discomfort in the genitals.
Herpes (blisters) or ulcers occur around and even extend to the vagina in some patients. This kind of ulcer often makes the patient feel pain and itching, and is often accompanied by redness and swelling of the reproductive part (vulva).
Many women feel pain when urinating, and may mistake it for bladder infection before finding ulcers.
The ulcer lasts at least one week at the beginning of the disease, but usually lasts 2-3 weeks. When the old ulcer begins to heal, the new ulcer reappears.
Abdominal and femoral lymph nodes also have pain and swelling. Flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache or general pain, will appear in the first week of the onset.
After the first infection, it usually relapses several times a year, but the pain will be reduced, the infectivity will be reduced, and the duration will be reduced by half. The onset process is that the skin around the genitals will itch, prick or burn for about two days before the ulcer appears.
Some women often have seizures, and individual women may have seizures once a month.
daily life:
Genital herpes does not need to change daily activities, but sexual contact should be avoided when the ulcer relapses.
treatment:
Hot water bath helps to reduce discomfort and keep reproductive organs clean.
Avoid wearing tights.
Paracetamol or aspirin can be used to control fever and pain.
There are many ways to treat genital herpes, but the most effective drug is Acyclovir. Generally, mild cases will improve without treatment. Acyclovir is usually only used for serious diseases. In addition, because herpes is a virus, the resistant □ □ element is not effective for this disease.
