Herpes Symptoms and Causes: A Comprehensive Guide Herpes is a viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV), with two main types: HSV-1 (oral herpes) and HSV-2 (genital herpes). Symptoms include painful blisters, itching, fever, and swollen lymph nodes. The virus spreads through direct contact, including kissing and sexual activity, and can be transmitted from mother to child during childbirth. Outbreaks may be triggered by stress, illness, or hormonal changes. Managing stress and maintaining good health can help reduce them. Dr. Vikas Singhal, a homeopathic expert doctor with over 22 years of experience at the Dr. Singhal Homeo clinic in Chandigarh, provides natural treatments for symptom relief and preventing outbreaks.
