Recurrent infections in the form of herpes labialis can also occur. A herpes simplex virus infection of the fingers (herpetic whitlow) is usually caused by direct contact with a herpetic lesion or infected saliva (Malik 2008).
Transmission occurs by direct contact of the affected part of the skin. Mucosa lesions and secretions can also be responsible for the transmission. Lesion in general is characterized by vesicles and sequent crusting. When the processor symptoms are present, acyclovir can be used for treatment or at least avoiding the worsening of the symptoms. Wearing gloves when treating patients with Herpes lesions provides adequate protection for the clinician.
