HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS (HSV) 1 IgG SERUM Test: Cost, Symptoms, and Diagnosis
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) 1 is a common virus that can cause cold sores or fever blisters on the mouth or face. It is a highly contagious virus that spreads through close contact with an infected person. The HSV 1 IgG Serum test is a blood test that detects the presence of antibodies to the HSV 1 virus in the blood. This test is used to diagnose a current or past infection with the virus.
Symptoms of HSV 1 Infection
The symptoms of HSV 1 infection may include:
- Cold sores or fever blisters on the mouth or face
- Tingling or itching sensation around the mouth or face
- Painful blisters or sores on the mouth or face
- Fever or flu-like symptoms
It is important to note that some people may not experience any symptoms of an HSV 1 infection.
Diagnosis of HSV 1 Infection
The diagnosis of HSV 1 infection is typically made through a physical examination and a review of the patient’s medical history. A doctor may also perform a blood test, such as the HSV 1 IgG Serum test, to confirm the presence of antibodies to the virus in the blood.
HSV 1 IgG Serum Test Cost
The cost of the HSV 1 IgG Serum test in India is typically around INR 819. However, the cost may vary depending on the location and the healthcare provider.
Conclusion
The HSV 1 IgG Serum test is a useful tool in the diagnosis of a current or past HSV 1 infection. It is important to seek medical attention if you experience any symptoms of an HSV 1 infection, as early diagnosis and treatment can help to manage the symptoms and prevent the spread of the virus.

HSV-1 is closely associated with orolabial infections and HSV encephalitis. HSV-1 serum testing is particularly useful for the follow-up of pregnant women, who were not previously exposed to HSV-1 and consequently are not protected against the virus. The presence of HSV-1 IgG antibody in serum is an indication of previous exposure. A significant increase in HSV IgG is an indication of reactivation, current or recent infection.
