Herpes is a common viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). There are two main types of HSV: HSV-1, which primarily causes oral herpes, leading to cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth; and HSV-2, which is more commonly associated with genital herpes, resulting in sores or blisters in the genital area. Herpes can be transmitted through direct contact with an infected area, often during an outbreak when symptoms are present, but also from skin that appears normal. It is a lifelong condition, as the virus can remain dormant in the body and reactivate at any time.
Living with herpes can have various effects on an individual's everyday life. The physical symptoms, such as painful sores and blisters, can cause discomfort and lead to emotional distress, affecting self-esteem and mental health. The stigma associated with herpes can also lead to social isolation, anxiety, and difficulties in forming intimate relationships. Managing outbreaks requires mindfulness of triggers and adherence to treatment protocols, which can alter daily routines and lifestyle choices.
