Herpes Infection?
One of the most common sexually transmitted diseases is also the hardest to detect and one of the most embarrassing to contract. Herpes is a virus that is transmitted through sexual contact and can be very difficult to detect in a sexual partner. It is difficult to spot because it has a similar appearance to simple acne in some people, though it can be severe and obvious in others. The good news is that herpes is not fatal and has few long term health consequences. The bad news is that herpes is incurable and will never go away. Anyone that finds they have been infected with herpes is immediately mortified. It makes them feel dirty and unattractive. It is important that anyone with herpes realize that it can happen to the best of people and is not typically a reflection of the sexual promiscuity of that person. There are a few things that anyone with herpes should be aware of and work towards addressing as soon as possible. Herpes affects every person differently. In some people it creates huge sores on the mouth and genitalia while other people rarely have outbreaks. It is important to know that the herpes infection flares up once a month and is far more contagious during that week than during other parts of the month. It is also important that any sexual partners be warned before sexual activity that they are at risk of contracting the disease. In some states it is considered a crime to not give warning to someone that they are at a high risk of contracting an incurable disease, so it is best that any potential partner be informed for protect both individuals. Contracting herpes is an embarrassing issue that most people do not want to discuss. It is important that anyone with the disease talk to a doctor as soon as symptoms are noticed. There are medications that can help control the obvious signs of a herpes infection, though none of them are capable of curing the disease. It is also vital that any potential lovers are given advanced warning that they are highly likely to get infected.
