About Our Herpes Simplex 1 & 2
Overview
Genital and oral herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus. The two types of this virus, 1 & 2, affect the oral and genital region. The infection is caused when the open sore of herpes on one person infects another through contact on a mucous membrane. Once you have herpes, there’s no known cure as of yet. However, outbreaks are usually benign and clear out of their own. Antiviral and herbal medicines can reduce outbreaks. When you get tested, you’re preventing the infection from being spread even further.
