Herpes is an STI spread through sexual contact such as kissing or sexual intercourse. There is oral herpes and genital herpes. Genital herpes is where there is discomfort and red blistering sores in the genital region and oral herpes is similar but it is only affected around the mouth.

Herpes goes through periods of being dormant and an outbreak is often signposted by other illnesses or stress.

You can buy Aciclovir tablets online or from your local GP to treat both oral and genital herpes.

If you suspect you have an STI please visit your local sexual health clinic to get tested. Getting tested is important as it will ensure you get appropriate treatment and prevent a further spread of STIs.

Symptoms of genital herpes can range from:

• Small red sores and rashes without pain or itchiness near the genital area.
• Itching around genitals
• Burning sensation when passing urine
• Swollen lymph glands
• Headaches

Visit a sexual health clinic immediately if you have

• small blisters that burst to leave red, open sores around your genitals, anus, thighs or bottom
• tingling, burning or itching around your genitals
• pain when you pee
• in women, vaginal discharge that’s not usual for you

The above symptoms can also be signs of genital herpes. It is important to go to a sexual health clinic even if you have not had sex for a long time, as blisters can take months or years to appear.

There are a few ways you can be diagnosed with genital herpes. If you are experiencing symptoms you should go see your GP or visit a sexual health clinic so a professional can view the sores.

You could send a sample of your urine to get tested using one of the free kits provided by the NHS or your nearest sexual health clinic.
