How is herpes zoster caused

summary

My elder sister is about to give birth to a child recently, but she has contracted herpes zoster for no reason recently. We are all very worried now, and we are all afraid of having an impact on the child. The doctor prescribed the medicine on that day, and now she is taking the medicine to recuperate. In order to prevent this situation, I'd like to introduce how herpes zoster is caused.

How is herpes zoster caused

Reason 1: low immunity: mainly refers to non sexual contact infection, contact with herpes zoster patients' secretions or contaminated appliances, such as towel, foot cloth, foot basin, quilt, even toilet ring, etc., can be infected.

Reason 2: traumatic infection: the herpes zoster virus can invade the body through small ruptured wounds on the skin or mucous membrane. After several days of incubation, the bacteria will multiply to a sufficient number and then begin to develop. Therefore, it is necessary to treat the broken wound with caution.

Reason 3: dirty sex life: dirty sex is the main cause of herpes zoster infection. Almost all male herpes zoster is caused by sexual contact. Herpes zoster is the main source of infection. It spreads quickly and has a high infection rate. It usually occurs about 3 weeks after infection.

matters needing attention

Reasonable life: Patients with recurrent herpes should pay attention to avoid unclean sexual intercourse and improper sexual relations during the recovery period, and genital herpes should be forbidden to have sex during the attack period. In the period of asymptomatic detoxification, patients can take safe measures to have sex.
