Herpes Simplex Treated Successfully with Homeopathy at Life Force
The herpes simplex virus, also known as HSV, is a viral infection that causes genital and oral herpes. An estimated 491 million people aged 15–49 (13%) worldwide have HSV-2 infection. Most HSV infections are asymptomatic, but symptoms of herpes include painful blisters or ulcers that can recur over time. Infection with HSV-2 increases the risk of acquiring and transmitting HIV infection.
