Genital herpes, most of the friends who have been tortured, are physically and mentally exhausted and in pain.
For healthy people, hearing its name is enough to frighten people, not to mention the possibility of recurrence of genital herpes.
Today, I will tell you about the causes and harms of genital herpes recurrence, so that you can have an in-depth understanding of genital herpes and have measures to prevent recurrence.
PART 01
Causes of recurrence of genital herpes
01
Failure to follow the course of medication or self-medication
In the process of treatment, some patients often have the psychology of contempt and impatience, do not take medication according to the course of treatment, and stop treatment when the symptoms improve slightly, which will lay a hidden danger for future recurrence.
Some patients even use drugs indiscriminately, which will lead to the occurrence of drug resistance, which is also toxic and side effects on the body, and can also cause repeated genital herpes that is difficult to heal.
02
Improper treatment is not a cure for the symptoms but not the root cause
The use of traditional drugs to treat genital herpes is only a symptom but not a cure, and the use of passive therapies such as antibiotics can only inhibit the replication of the virus, but cannot completely eliminate the virus existing in the nucleus of tissue cells.
In addition, the abuse of antibiotics affects the immune performance of the body and affects the treatment process of the disease, which is also a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause.
03
Lack of hygiene and re-infection with the herpes virus
If you do not pay attention to personal hygiene, do not disinfect the clothes and pants and daily necessities that you have come into contact with with germs, and do not check and treat your sexual partners in time, these factors can easily lead to the patient being re-infected after being cured, and then it will cause recurrence.
04
The body's immunity is weak, leading to recurrence
After comprehensive treatment, the herpes subsided, and the damage was repaired as before. However, a small number of remnants of the virus can mutate and hide in nerve cells.
When the patient's immunity is weakened, the latent virus resurrects, begins to multiply, and then replicates the new virus in large quantities, and returns to the skin and mucosa along the neural axis, causing new herpes, and the lesion can gradually expand, resulting in herpes recurrence.
Factors such as alcoholism, smoking, overwork, lack of sleep, lack of exercise, etc., can all lower immunity.
PART 02
Dangers of recurrent genital herpes
