Overview

On physical examination multiple, round, superficial oral ulcers accompanied by acute gingivitis can be seen. Lymphadenopathy, gingivitis, and tonsillitis may accompany the primary lesions.[1]

Physical Examination

The physical examination of herpes infection may show:[2]

1) Blisters or ulcers

  • Site - In orofacial herpes/herpes simplex 1 the ulcers are commonly found on lips, gums, throat, front of tongue, inside of the cheeks, and roof of the mouth. These occur around genitalia in cases of genital herpes/herpes simplex 2.
  • Size - Generally small (2-5 mm)
  • Shape - Round
  • The lesions may occur in groups/crops

2) Lymphadenopathy (cervical, Inguinal glands)

3) Gingivitis and tonsillitis in herpes simplex 1

The following image is an example of how the Herpes simplex virus can cause nail disease.
