wrwqe sgwsg Oral Herpes: What is it!

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), also referred to as oral herpes, is a common viral infection that mostly affects the mouth and its surrounding tissues. It results in painful sores or blisters on the lips, gums, tongue, roof of the mouth, or inside the cheeks. These sores are sometimes referred to as fever blisters or cold sores. When an infected person’s skin or saliva comes into close touch with another person—for example, by kissing, sharing cutlery, or oral contact—oral herpes can spread very quickly.
