title: Recurrent herpes simplex virus infections and erythema multiforme: a report of three patients.
abstract: The widespread preoccupation of the media and patients with herpes prompts this report of two patients who developed erythema multiforme, an allergic response to the herpes simplex virus. While this complication is not new, physicians and nurses working in clinics for sexually transmitted diseases should be aware of this allergic response to infection with herpes simplex virus.
