| herpes labialis | <virology> An infection of the lips or mouth which results in a blistery sore that is caused by Herpes simplex type 1. Painful blisters (eventually becoming ulcers) will often presenting on the lips or nasal mucosa. Infected individuals should avoid contact with others due to potential for transfer of the infection. Herpes labialis tends to be recurrent and often exacerbated by stress, sunlight, fever or illness. Treatment includes the use of antiviral creams (acyclovir) and oral medications (acyclovir). Pre-treatment with oral acyclovir, in those prone to cold sores (prior to sun exposure, etc.) has been shown to decrease exacerbations. (27 Sep 1997) |
| herpes oesophagitis | <pathology> A viral infection causing inflammation and ulcers on the mucosal surface of the oesophagus. This infection typically occurs in the immunocompromised individual (chemotherapy recipient, AIDS patient). Symptoms include difficulty swallowing and pain on swallowing. Individuals may also be noted to have Herpes skin lesions (vesicles or ulcers) on the lips or in the mouth. Treatment includes the use of an antiviral agent (for example acyclovir). (27 Sep 1997) |
