Herpes labialis is an infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) with initial episodes presenting as asymptomatic or symptomatic small blisters or sores on the skin near the site of infection. When the initial infection heals, the virus spreads to sensory nerve cells, where it remains dormant until reactivation occurs. Recurrent herpes labialis (RHL) is a viral disease caused by the reactivation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) which lies dormant in the sensory neurons after the initial infection.1
HSV-1 reactivation occurs due to various factors such as physical or emotional stress, hormonal imbalances, bacterial infections and suppression of immunity.1
