Is genital herpes zoster contagious

summary

I used to have genital herpes in my hometown in Nanning. After a brief look there, I felt it was OK. Later, I moved here with my wife. Now I found it was the disease again in my physical examination, and then I treated it immediately. The situation is a little better. Let's talk about the infection of genital herpes zoster.

Is genital herpes zoster contagious

Route 1: source of infection. Through observation, the source of infection of the disease is patients and virus carriers, especially in the genital skin or mucous membrane of patients with herpes simplex virus, which can be transmitted to spouses or other sexual partners through sexual contact, and can also be transmitted to each other among homosexuals.

Approach 2: heterosexual sex. In general, due to different ways of heterosexual sex, genital herpes can also be transmitted. Since infectious viruses can survive in humid environments for several hours, herpes simplex can also be transmitted indirectly through pollutants.

Pathway 3: incubation period. Because the disease has a certain incubation period, usually exists in the spinal cord nerve, physiologically there will be no symptoms, but at this time the virus has been infectious. After the onset of herpes virus, there will be bursts of tingling, burning sensation, skin ulceration and small wounds and other symptoms.
