Antibody response: The positive IgG antibody level against HSV-1 indicates past infection (this is generally spread via skin contact and usually causes cold sores). The elevated IgG is not necessarily related to a currently active (or recent reactivation of) infection; but it could increase in these instances. This level generally would not need any follow up.
