What are the hazards of male penile herpes? Male penile herpes can be treated in three ways
1. What are the hazards of penis herpes
1.1. Cause infertility
Genital herpes is a huge hazard. Genital herpes causes other urinary system diseases and may be an important factor leading to male infertility.
1.2. Influence on the next generation
If a pregnant woman receives genital herpes virus infection, it will be transmitted to the newborn through various ways. If the newborn has genital herpes virus in the body, it may be serious and life-threatening.
1.3. Vulnerable to sexually transmitted diseases
In sexually transmitted disease endemic areas, genital herpes also provides access and convenient conditions for AIDS virus to enter the human body, thus increasing the risk of AIDS.
1.4 Psychological barriers
Patients with genital herpes may have psychological disorders due to their own diseases, fear of cancer, fear of infection to their sexual partners, and avoid sexual life with their sexual partners. Over time, it will lead to sexual dysfunction, affect family harmony, and affect the relationship between husband and wife.
2. Symptoms of penile herpes
2.1. Erythema, itching, clusters of small blisters, blister parietal membrane, and ulceration occur at the reproductive site, and patients often feel pain. The initial infection symptoms are severe, and the repeated incidence rate is high.
2.2. On the average of 4-5 days after infection, the affected part of the vulva first has a burning sensation, and then a group of papules, which can be one or more clusters, and then form blisters. After a few days, it will develop into pustules, and form erosion or shallow ulcer after ulceration. It will feel pain, and finally scab and heal itself. The course of disease is about 2 to 3 weeks. Skin lesions often occur in the foreskin, glans, coronal groove and penis of men, and occasionally at the urethral orifice.
2.3. Anal-rectal pain, constipation, increased secretions, and tenesmus, herpetic ulcer can be found around the anus, and congestion, bleeding and small ulcer of the lower rectal mucosa are common in sigmoidoscopy. Genital herpes is capricious and easy to recur. After ulceration, it forms erosion or superficial ulcer, which is painful, and finally scabs and self-heals. The course of disease is about 2-3 weeks.
3. Causes of penis herpes
First of all, traumatic infection is one of the common causes of genital herpes. Physical trauma, such as surgery, may lead to disease. The low function of the human immune system can also lead to the appearance of herpes symptoms. People whose immune system function is weakened by AIDS virus are more likely to get sick than those with normal immune function.
Secondly, the cause of genital herpes is related to hormones in the body. Hormonal changes such as those occurring in the menstrual cycle can cause an outbreak of genital herpes. It can also cause the recurrence of the patient's disease. So far, the real reason is not clear.
