STD experts said that genital herpes is caused by herpes simplex virus infection and is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in China. What is the cause of genital herpes?

Three causes of genital herpes

1. The main cause of genital herpes is infection of skin mucosa or damaged skin. Herpes virus enters the human body through the skin mucosa and damaged parts, copies in the epidermis and dermis cells, infects the nerve and autonomic nerve endings, and the virus enters the nerve cells in the ganglia along the nerve cord to produce symptoms. This infection is usually rapid.

2. Hormone change: Among the pathogenic factors of genital herpes, the change of hormone in the body is also one of the important factors, and the majority of patients are affected by this factor. The body is in a state of excessive fatigue for a long time, cold symptoms cannot be cured for a long time, hormone disorders in the body, genital herpes, and hormone changes in the body of women during menstruation are also prone to disease.

Male friends infected with genital herpes can be divided into the following three conditions:

1. Initial infection symptoms

On the average of 4 to 5 days after infection, the affected vulva first had a burning sensation, and then a group of papules, which could be one or more clusters, followed by blisters. A few days later, it develops into pustules, which form erosion or shallow ulcer pain after rupture, and finally scabs and self-heals. The course of disease is about 2 to 3 weeks. Skin injuries often occur in male foreskin, glans, coronal groove and penis, and occasionally occur at the urethral orifice.
