Herpes is caused by the Herpes simplex virus. It is typically described by the area of the body it attacks. If the mouth is infected, it is referred to as oral herpes. If reproductive areas are infected, it is referred to as genital herpes.

Herpes can also attack any organ of the body, including the eyes and brain. These types of infections tend to be far more devastating than surface infections.
