Can herpes affect my throat if I have HSV2, and what are the signs of herpes in the throat?

Hi,In general, prevention of a viral infectious agent, such as HSV, from an infected party to a non-infected party revolves around a few strategies:1. Avoid direct contact between the parties especially during the active disease phase (abstinence strategy) 2. Allow direct contact but insert an effective barrier, if available, to transmission during direct contact (barrier method strategy)3. Suppress the viral load in the infected party with medication to reduce the risk of transmission (pre-exposure suppressive strategy). 4.

The most common lump in the lip area seen in my practice is a retention cyst. This refers to a collection of mucous or saliva that usually occurs after some trauma to the lip region (e. g. accidental biting of the lip). You should see an ENT Specialist for an assessment. The treatment usually involves a simple surgical excision under local anaesthesia.
