Herpes Remedy - Home Treatment For Herpes Virus

There are two types of the herpes virus. Type I (herpes simplex) is recognized by cold sores and skin eruptions. It can also cause an inflammation of the cornea of the eye. If the eye becomes infected, see a doctor at once. This virus can cause encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain. Type II (genital herpes) is sexually transmitted and is the most prevalent herpes infection. This viral infection can range in severity from a silent infection to a serious inflammation of the liver including fever, severe brain damage, and stillbirths. Babies can pick up the virus in the birth canal, risking brain damage, blindness, and death. A Cesarean section may be necessary to protect the baby.
    After entering the body, the virus never leaves. It can only be kept under control so it will not break out in painful fluid-filled blisters that form around the mouth and genitals. These blisters are highly infectious for up to three weeks, until healed. The virus may lay dormant for long periods of time. Sickness, stress, and unknown factors can cause the virus to break out n open sores again.
    After initial contact, the sores appear two to seven days after exposure. Recurrent eruptions are common. After a period of time, the virus burns itself out, rarely appearing after age fifty.
    A mild tingling and burning in the vaginal area may be the first sign of genital herpes in women. Within a matter of a few hours, blisters develop around the rectum, clitoris, and cervix, and in the vagina. There is often a watery discharge from the urethra and pain when urinating.
    In men blisters break out on the penis, groin, and scrotum, often with a urethral discharge and painful urination. Sometimes the penis and foreskin will swell.
    Both men and women may have a low-grade fever and muscular aches. The male may also have tender swollen lymph nodes in the groin. After a few days, pus erupts from the blisters and forms large, painful ulcers. These sores crust over and dry while healing, usually leaving no scars.
