Primary herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection is first infection with either herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) or herpes simplex virus-2 (HSV-2) in individuals who do not have antibodies to either HSV-1 or HSV-2.
Diagnosis is usually based on distinctive lesions, but lab tests may be done if lesions are atypical and if patient has a central nervous system (CNS) disease or severe infection or is pregnant, immunocompromised, or a neonate.
Symptomatic therapy include analgesics and antipyretics, topical anesthetics, antipruritics, oral preparations for the symptomatic relief of ulceration and inflammation, and antivirals (oral and topical).
