What medicine is used for penile herpes

Penile herpes can be easily confused with eczema. The symptoms of the two are very similar and some rashes will appear. When facing this infectious disease of the reproductive organs, it must be treated with medication. There are many triggering factors for penile herpes, such as unhealthy sex life and unclean clothes. Penile herpes is not an ordinary skin infection. It belongs to a viral skin infection that is more complicated to treat.

Preventive measures

1. Proper abstinence. When symptoms occur, sexual intercourse, oral sex or anal sex should be moderate. When herpes is highly prevalent, patients with active genital herpes are absolutely prohibited from having sex with anyone. This is the best prevention method. Consider using condoms when having sex when the herpes subsides and there are no symptoms. Although the chance of infection or infection of herpes is reduced in the absence of obvious wounds, herpes can still spread the bacteria through shed cells when symptoms occur.

2. Patients with recurrent genital herpes should avoid obvious triggering factors as much as possible in their daily lives to reduce recurrence. Avoid multiple partners and advocate a loyal partner, which will benefit both parties in the long run.

3. To prevent fetal and neonatal infection, female patients should actively receive treatment during pregnancy. Patients with primary infection before 28 weeks of pregnancy should terminate the pregnancy. Patients infected in late pregnancy must be cautious during delivery, use safe delivery methods, and follow the doctor's instructions.

Causes

HSV-1 is transmitted through close contact with the respiratory tract, skin and mucous membranes, mainly causing infections of the lips, pharynx, eyes and skin, and a small number (about 8%) can also cause genital infections. HSV-2 is the main pathogen of genital herpes (88%), present in the exudate of skin and mucous membrane damage, semen, prostate secretions, cervical and vaginal secretions, and is mainly transmitted through sexual intercourse, causing primary genital herpes. After primary genital herpes subsides, the residual virus can remain dormant in the sacral ganglia along the neural axis through the peripheral nerves for a long time. When the body's resistance is reduced or certain stimulating factors such as fever, cold, infection, menstruation, gastrointestinal dysfunction, trauma, etc., the latent virus in the body can be activated and relapse. Humans are the only host of the herpes virus. The virus cannot survive outside the human body. Ultraviolet light, ether and general disinfectants can inactivate it.
