What are Mouth Herpes?

[hamy34]

Hi

Mouth herpes is a painful medical condition that occurs when a person comes into contact with a strain of the herpes simplex virus (HSV). The virus is usually manifested in the form of painful blisters that appear on and around a person's mouth, accompanied by several uncomfortable symptoms such as a sore throat and fever. HSV cannot be cured, though many people find that they can reduce the frequency and severity of mouth herpes outbreaks by keeping their bodies healthy and consulting their physicians about proper treatment.

Thanks

Mouth Herpes, also known as Oral Herpes is more common than you may think. Oral herpes is an infection of the mouth and lips caused by the herpes simplex virus (also termed HSV). Cold sores are also commonly known as fever blisters, oral herpes or herpes labialis. They are lesions that occur on the mouth, lip and facial area
