What denotes Herpes Simplex?

Dormant contagious viral infection
Congenital lack of skin pigmentation
Redness from capillary congestion
Rare benign tumor from keratin cells

The correct answer is: Dormant contagious viral infection

Herpes Simplex refers to a dormant contagious viral infection which can be either of two types Type I and Type II. These are different strains of herpes simplex virus and can cause painful sores or blisters on the mouth, lips and/or genitals. Other than A, the other options are incorrect because B refers to a genetic condition called Albinism, which is characterized by lack of skin pigmentation. C refers to redness caused due to capillary congestion which can happen due to a variety of reasons, not necessarily related to herpes simplex. D refers to a rare, benign skin tumor which is not related to herpes simplex in any way. Hence, option A is the only correct option as it denotes the specific viral infection of herpes simplex.
