What reason is lip long herpes?

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is a kind of DNA virus, which can cause skin and mucous membrane herpes after infecting human body. Patients with initial infection usually do not get sick immediately. The virus will lurk in the sensory ganglion cells of human body, and the specific latent sites can be genital mucosa, oral mucosa, respiratory tract mucosa, etc. The incubation period can be very short. For example, the incubation period can be about a week. Of course, the incubation period can be very long, even as long as 20 or 30 years.

Infection in the population. After a lot of medical research and investigation, it is found that more than 50% of the ordinary people have been infected with herpes simplex virus, that is to say, more than half of the people around us are virus carriers, but these people do not necessarily get herpes.

Inducing factors. Since so many people are infected with herpes virus, why don't these people get sick. In fact, it is not easy for herpes virus to grow and reproduce rapidly in human body. The immune ability of ordinary people can fight against the infection of herpes virus. But if the human body's resistance decreases, such as body fever caused by cold, or gastrointestinal dysfunction, menstruation, pregnancy, bad mood, etc., in these cases, the decline of human immune ability is not enough to fight against herpes virus infection, and blister rash will appear at this time.

matters needing attention

It is suggested that we should pay more attention to exercise and enhance the body's immune function, so that even if there is latent herpes virus in the body, it will not get sick. Avoid contact with people with skin infections and wash hands frequently. Protect your skin from damage, and keep your clothes, clothes and bedding soft. Cut nails frequently to avoid scratching the skin.
