An HSV infection can cause small, painful sores that look like blisters on the skin or the tissue lining ( mucous membranes ) of the throat, nose, mouth, urethra , rectum, and vagina. A herpes infection may cause only a single outbreak of sores, but in many cases the person will have more outbreaks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

HSV-1 is generally spread by kissing or by sharing eating utensils (such as spoons or forks) when sores are present. HSV-1 can also cause sores around the genitals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

HSV-2 also causes the herpes infection seen in babies who are delivered vaginally in women who have genital herpes. HSV-2 is generally spread by sexual contact. HSV-2 can sometimes cause mouth sores.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;&quot; data-block=&quot;true&quot; data-editor=&quot;3on7b&quot; data-offset-key=&quot;fan0d-0-0&quot;&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-offset-key=&quot;fan0d-0-0&quot;&gt; Herpes viral culture. This is a test to find the herpes virus. Fluid from a fresh sore is added to certain cells used to grow HSV. If no virus infects the cells, the culture is negative. If the herpes virus infects the cells, the culture is positive. The culture often fails to find the virus even when it is present ( false-negative results ).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Herpes virus antigen detection test. Cells from a fresh sore are scraped off and then smeared onto a microscope slide. This test finds markers (called antigens ) on the surface of cells infected with the herpes virus. This test may be done with or in place of a viral culture.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test. A PCR test can be done on cells or fluid from a sore or on blood or on other fluid, such as spinal fluid. PCR finds the genetic material ( DNA ) of the HSV virus. This test can tell the difference between HSV-1 and HSV-2. Using the PCR test on skin sores isn&#39;t common.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Antibody tests. Blood tests can find antibodies that are made by the immune system to fight a herpes infection. Antibody tests are sometimes done but are not as accurate as a viral culture at finding the cause of a specific sore or ulcer. Antibody tests cannot always tell the difference between a current active herpes infection and a herpes infection that occurred in the past. Because antibodies take time to develop after the first infection, you may not have a positive antibody test if you have just recently been infected.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
