Herpes simplex virus type 1 is more commonly diagnosed in oral herpes, but both type 1 and type 2 can infect the mouth, genitals, or other body parts. Type 1 is less likely to recur than type 2.

What does it mean if on a pathology report it has reactive next to herpes simplex tot the doctor said nothing was wrong but you just noticed reactive next to it and highlighted?

I would that if you are the patient in the pathology report that you ask the doctor if you should be concerned by this. It could be a simple mistake, the person who compiled the report might have meant to mark the box above or below. If you did ask about it and the doctor replied nothing then you can do one of two things. take the doctors word for it or get a second test done just for the herpes simplex.


Are cold sores cause by bacteria or virus?

Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus. No doubt you've heard of "herpes" before, but don't jump ahead of yourself. There are actually two types of herpes simplex virus, "type 1" and "type 2." Type 1 herpes simplex virus. Herpes simplex virus type 1 ("HSV1") generally only infects those body tissues that lie "above the waistline" and it is HSV1 that causes cold sores in the majority of cases. Type 2 herpes simplex virus. Herpes simplex virus type 2 ("HSV2") usually only infects those body tissues that lie "below the waistline" and it is this virus that is also known as "genital herpes." Herpes simplex virus type 2 is not usually the virus that causes cold sores, although it can.
