What is herpes virus
summary
Herpes, commonly known as "snake pill", "snake coil sores" or "spider sores", is caused by a virus infection called varicella herpes, which is a common herpetic skin disease involving nerves and skin. When children are first infected with this virus, chickenpox may occur, or it may become recessive infection without onset. At this time, the virus is latent in the brain or spinal ganglia. When cold, malignant tumor, immune disease, radiation or chemical therapy occur, and the human body's resistance is reduced, herpes will be induced. So sick patients, what is the herpes virus, let's take a specific look at it.
