Check up shows herpes! is this really dangerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Herpes is a viral infection for which there is no cure. It can cause a great deal of pain, and one of the cardinal symptoms is pain out of proportion to the size of the lesions. It is easily passed from one person to the next during intercourse.
