Avoiding the Herpes Simplex Viruses

It takes anywhere from two to twenty days after your initial contact with the virus that the first outbreak occurs. Herpes can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact and will manifest on the genitals of the infected individual. The initial outbreak will always be the worst and most aggravated among all attacks but about 60% of those who experience the initial outbreak will not be able to detect a herpes infection.
Herpes Simplex Type 1 and Herpes Simplex Type 2 are the two kinds of herpes virus. Herpes 1 is generally termed as cold sores which commonly manifest in the mouth. On the other hand Herpes 2 generally takes place in the genitals and is sexually transmitted, as it is considered.

Herpes outbreaks vary on the gender of the infected host. In men, the initial outbreak on average last for two weeks while in lasts over three weeks for women. Herpes is commonly misdiagnosed because of its similar manifestation with other skin infections, especially to women. The sores found in the vagina can sometimes thought to be insect bites or other skin conditions. More often, herpes is mistaken to be outbreak of boils. Boils are painful and larger than the herpes manifestation, because of the large variety of treatment for boils, herpes are often left untreated. The vagina is not the only area where herpes can manifest, herpes can also manifest as lesions in the cervix, anus, urethra, buttocks, thighs, and vulva. If you come to notice any abnormal vaginal discharge, frequent discomforts in your genitals, and sores, it would be best to submit yourself for herpes testing.
Sores or blisters, or more often referred to as herpes bumps, this starts with a red and sensitive skin. The genital area is the most common spot for these lesions, but it is still possible to develop inside the vagina, making it less likely to be noticed. There are other observed symptoms such as pain in the lower back, muscle ache, fever, headache, and lymph nodes are swollen in the groin area.
Around 25% of women develop meningitis while the 15% only develop uneasiness of urination after the initial outbreak of herpes.
As for the other female victims, the herpes symptoms could also list some vaginal discharge as well as some painful sensation when they are urinating. Around twenty-five percent of the female victims will have meningitis their first herpes outbreak's complication while some 10- 15% will be having troubles in urinating for their herpes disease.
80% of the majorities of the infected who experienced the initial outbreak will continue to have recurrent outbreaks. Recurrent outbreaks are shorter in duration and not as severe as the initial but can still cause discomfort and can increase the likelihood of passing on the virus.
Every other herpes episode would manifest "warning symptoms". More than usual, the infected would experience discomfort and pain in the infected area before it will develop to sores. In this time of recurrence, the infected is most contagious.

Early detection would lessen the likelihood of recurrence as treatment and medications are available for herpes.
