Herpes simplex virus (HSV) 很普遍,通常在儿童时期通过直接身体接触传播。它常见于口腔(HSV-1)或生殖器(HSV-2)。在极少数情况下,病毒可扩散至指尖,引起疼痛、肿胀、发红和水泡,称为 herpetic whitlow。 Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is common and is most often transmitted in childhood through direct physical contact. The most common infectious sites are oral mucosa (HSV-1) or genital mucosa (HSV-2).

一名一岁女孩因单侧手指出现发热、发红、肿胀,持续四天后被送往医院。口腔溃疡的检测证实存在1型单纯疱疹病毒(HSV‑1),因此诊断为herpetic whitlow(疱疹性指尖炎)。 A one-year-old girl was hospitalized after experiencing four days of fever, redness, and swelling in one of her fingers. Tests on a mouth sore confirmed the presence of herpes simplex virus type 1, leading to a diagnosis of herpetic whitlow.
疱疹性甲沟炎 (herpetic whitlow) 可由 HSV-1 或 HSV-2 引起。HSV-1 通常通过接触病毒的医护人员感染;牙科工作人员和其他医务人员因接触口腔分泌物最常受到感染。患有 HSV-1 口腔感染的吮拇指儿童以及在 20 至 30 岁成年人中因接触 HSV-2 生殖器感染也常见此病。
