  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Humans are the primary hosts for over 80 herpes viruses.
  • Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) causes widespread, highly transmissible infections globally.
  • Herpes simplex labialis (HSL) is a well-known recurrent infection affecting the lips and surrounding skin.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of herpes simplex labialis (HSL).
  • To discuss the pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and diagnosis of HSL.
  • To outline current management strategies for HSL.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of herpes simplex labialis.
  • Analysis of pathogenesis and clinical manifestations.
  • Review of diagnostic criteria and treatment options.
