How to get male genital herpes

Genital herpes is a common infectious sexually transmitted disease. Not only will physical health be affected, but it will also cause serious psychological harm to people. Many families have become broken up because of genital herpes. In fact, there are many reasons why men suffer from genital herpes, most of which are closely related to daily living habits. The following introduces the reasons why men suffer from genital herpes.

How do you get male genital herpes?

1. Genital herpes in men is related to bad habits.

Excessive smoking and drinking, for example, contain many substances that are harmful to the human body. Tobacco can suppress the body's immunity, and alcohol can cause confusion in the central nervous system, increase sexual function and prostitution, and lead to more bad sex. At the same time, the use of condoms decreases after drinking, violent sexual behavior increases, and the chance and degree of genital damage increase, which also increases the incidence and recurrence rate of the disease.

2. Genital herpes in men is related to unclean sexual contact.

People who have dirty sex with multiple people are more likely to get genital herpes than those who have a single sexual partner, especially men and women who have frequent sex. Excessive sex or multiple sex with different people will increase the chance of recurrence. The incidence and recurrence rates of eczema acuminatum in male sex workers are higher than those in the general public. The incidence and recurrence rates of those who first had sex at the age of less than 19 were higher than those of others.

3. Genital herpes in men is related to human immunity.

Generally speaking, patients with low immunity have a higher chance of developing the disease. Some other genital diseases can induce genital herpes. For example, patients who have undergone kidney transplantation, chemotherapy, malignant tumors, lupus erythematosus, and those who use glucocorticoids have a doubled chance of developing and recurring eczema acuminata, and the warts are also larger. This is also the cause of eczema acuminata.

What to do with male genital herpes

For male genital herpes, if it is the first time to get herpes simplex virus, we think the sooner the treatment, the better. For example, if there are a few bubbles or the skin is a little damaged, it is more important to go to the hospital. The earlier the treatment, the better the control of the virus. Generally speaking, antiviral drugs only need to be used for 1-2 weeks, and other drugs to improve immune function can prevent recurrence. To improve immune function, avoid drinking or staying up late, or working very hard, and avoid the situation of decreased immunity, the recurrence rate will be relatively low.

Male genital herpes symptoms

Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the herpes simplex virus. Male patients may present with changes such as herpes, pustules, and ulcers in the genital area. Some patients with low immunity may be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever, muscle aches, and fatigue. Generally, the diagnosis can be made based on the medical history and typical clinical manifestations. The confirmed diagnosis also requires virus isolation, and if necessary, cytology, pathology, nucleic acid testing and other examinations can be performed. Antiviral drugs are currently the first choice for the treatment of genital herpes, while improving the patient's immunity and preventing recurrence of the disease.
