Blood tests for antibodies to HSV-1 and HSV-2 can also help diagnose these infections. This is especially helpful when there are no sores present.
Alternatively, at-home testing for Herpes Simplex is available. You can buy a test kit online from LetsGetChecked here.
How is herpes simplex treated?
There is currently no cure for this virus. Treatment focuses on getting rid of sores and limiting outbreaks.
It’s possible that your sores will go away without treatment. However, your doctor may determine you need one or more of the following medications:
acyclovir
famciclovir
valacyclovir
These medications can help people with an infection reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to others. The medications also help to lower the intensity and frequency of outbreaks.
These medications may come in oral (pill) form, or may be applied as a cream. For severe outbreaks, these medications may also be administered by injection.
What is the long-term outlook for herpes simplex?
People who contract HSV will have the virus for the rest of their lives. Even if it does not manifest symptoms, the virus will continue to live in nerve cells.
Some people may experience regular outbreaks. Others will only experience one outbreak after they contract the virus, and then the virus may become dormant. Even if a virus is dormant, certain stimuli can trigger an outbreak. These include:
stress
menstrual periods
fever or illness
sun exposure or sunburn
It’s believed that outbreaks may become less intense over time because the body starts creating antibodies. If a generally healthy person is contracts the virus, there are usually no complications.

Acestea sunt premisele principale de la care porneşte cercetătorul în căutarea sa de modele şi modalităţi literare de receptare. S-a vorbit astfel de patologii de receptare, de estetica personajului şi nu în ultimul rănd de o receptare critică a operei literare. Sarcina cu care se confruntă cercetătorul în demersul său este de a descoperi în ce măsură opera examinată capătă caracter normativ la nivelul unui grup de receptori care aderă la stilul, forma şi limbajul literar al autorului receptat. Franz Kafka şi Samuel Beckett se integrează în categoria scriitorilor emblematici ai modernităţii şi drept urmare am considerat că un stud...
