Genital herpes is an STD, a common sexually transmitted disease caused by infection with the herpes simplex virus. Genital herpes has a long and recurrent course and occurs mainly on the genitourinary and perianal skin, causing blister-like changes in these areas, accompanied by pins and needles pain. Genital herpes is mainly caused by human herpes simplex virus type II infection, and the virus can be found in skin exudate, semen, prostate fluid, and cervical and vaginal secretions. Therefore, even if the patient uses a condom, there is still a risk of transmission of genital herpes. In addition, because the virus lurks in the nervous system between attacks, the disease can recur. Treatment for genital herpes is usually oral anti-viral medication, topical acyclic guanosine cream, and if accompanied by infection, anti-inflammatory creams to prevent secondary infection. Excessive alcohol consumption, staying up late, colds, and fever can cause genital herpes to recur easily, so patients should usually take rest, strengthen their body resistance, and quit drinking at the same time.
