What are the interesting facts about Herpes Simplex Type 1?
The difference is the type of strains.type 1 is weaker and mostly oral yet you can get it any wheres. type 2 is stronger of the two. Usually if you get type 2 you will not get type 1. Yet if you get type 1 you can still get type 2.You can get either one any wheres on your body. As I found out from my Dr. She has seen thousands of cases over her career yet she knows very little about it. Some Dr’s dont think much about it as it in reality is not life threatening as a virus. What they do not understand at all (unless they have it ) Is the emotional part of it
Presently there is no cure for this HSV but people who get it can certainly get the symptoms treated. There are three types of treatments for HSV. First is initial treatment which is started when you are diagnosed with herpes for a period of ten days. Second is intermittent treatment which is carried out when you experience recurrent outbreaks of HSV. Last is Regular treatment which is carried out when outbreaks of the disease occur after every year. This treatment helps your outbreaks to reduce by as much as 80%.

As kbenji33 says, once infected you got it forever. Between outbreaks the virus just sits in your upper trunk spine (or sometimes in the nerve cells of the skin) and when activated, the virus moves along your nerves to the outbreak area. Once you have it, you can’t get it again – your very own Herpes Simplex I will protect you against a new additional infection with another type of Herpes Simplex I in your upper trunk. However, your Herpes Simplex I can be transmitted to the lower trunk – or you can be infected with Herpes Simplex Type 2 on top of Herpes Simplex Type I (guess how).
