Herpes Symptoms
from:Herpes, both genital and oral is caused by the Herpes Simplex
Virus. There are two strains of this virus, HSV-1 AND HSV-2.
HSV-1 is known to cause oral Herpes, while genital herpes is
caused by the HSV-2 virus.
The common symptom for these two diseases is the appearance of
blisters and sores on the body; the difference lies on the part
of the body they appear. In case of oral herpes, they appear on
the lips, in and on the mouth. In genital Herpes, the sores
appear on the genital area--inside the vagina or on the cervix
in the women and on the penis in the males, as also in the
urinary tract of both men and women.
Herpes lesions first appear as small red burns then mature into
blisters that later become sores. After a few weeks, these sores
dry up and heal without scaling.
The first attack of the Herpes virus is called the primary
episode. The symptoms appear within two to ten days of the
infection and last for about two to three weeks. The first most
noticeable symptom of the disease is the itching that the
infected person feels when the sores appear. In case of oral
herpes, the gums become red and swollen, and in some cases, the
tongues develop a white coating.
Other symptoms of oral herpes include fever, muscle ache,
difficulty eating, and feeling of irritability. It is important
to remember that both oral herpes and genital herpes are
infectious diseases.
In both variants of the disease, in most cases, there are no
visible symptoms, or even when there are sores and blisters,
people generally don't identify them with herpes. Therefore,
infected people unintentionally transfer the disease through
physical contact- be it touching, kissing, or sexual activity.
