There are two types of herpes simplex: primary and recurrent. Primary herpes simplex is characterized by pain and tenderness in the infected area of the skin, accompanied by generalized flu-like symptoms, followed by the formation of blisters, which are typically found in clusters or scattered. Recurrent herpes simplex symptoms are not very obvious, the number of blisters is smaller and the duration is short.
Herpes simplex is a common skin disease caused by the herpes simplex virus, which is clinically categorized into primary and recurrent types. Primary herpes simplex causes pain, tenderness and burning sensation in the affected area in the early stages, and usually presents with generalized flu-like symptoms, such as poor appetite and malaise. This is followed by the appearance of blisters, typically in clusters or scattered, which break down and erode.
In the case of recurrent herpes simplex, the clinical symptoms are not very obvious, usually the number of blisters is not large, the duration is short, vesicles, oozing, dryness and other symptoms are likely to occur, and the disease usually resolves within a week.
If the above symptoms occur, it is considered to be caused by herpes simplex, and you should seek medical examination promptly.
