Genital Herpes Facts & Resources

2007-02-09T04:41:00.000-08:00

Herpes is a sexually transmitted viral disease caused by the
Herpes Simplex Virus. Two strains of this virus have been
identified - HSV I and HSV2.

The HSV-I virus is known to cause oral herpes. Oral herpes is a
disease that affects the mouth. Cold sores appear on the lips
and on and in the mouth. It is a communicable disease that is
prevalent among children, though it is not uncommon among adults
as well.

The outbreak of the disease results in painful sores,
swollen and bleeding gums and sometimes a white coating on the
tongue.

Cold Sores Are Caused By...

2006-06-22T04:29:00.000-07:00

Cold sores are caused by herpes simplex virus type 1. The virus is in the body and it stays in the nerves and never completely goes away. Cold sores are commonly triggered by exposure to sunlight. One of three people suffers from cold sores.
Some tips for dealing with cold sores include:

• Reduce stress when possible
• Wear sunscreen and SPF lip protection
• Use lip balm frequently to keep lips moist

When you do come down with a cold sore, don’t kiss anyone, or touch your cold sore with your hands. Cold sores can spread very easily. Also, talk with your doctor about possible medications to help stop or slow active herpes virus.

Carmex - Learn More

2006-04-27T03:54:00.000-07:00

Carmex is a topical lip balm which claims to reduce cold sores and dry chapped lips, supplied in a characteristic yellow container.

Carmex is manufactured by Carma Laboratories in Franklin, Wisconsin. Its active ingredients include menthol, camphor, alum, and salicylic acid.

Many users find the menthol and camphor produce a cool, soothing sensation when applied. Some maintain the product is addictive, but this is disputed.

Carmex containerCarmex was created by Alfred Woelbing. Woelbing was working as a buyer of drugs and toiletries for a department store in Milwaukee, Wisconsin when the Great Depression hit the United States.

Woelbing lost his job at the department store and began producing and selling Lyptone, a protective lip balm he concocted in his home. Lyptone was sold for 25 cents until 1935 when Woelbing sold the formula and product name to a company in New Jersey for $2,500.

After developing and selling a homemade silver polish "Shynebright" for 2 years, Woelbing began working on a new lip protection product to cure his own chapped lips and cold sores. The resulting product was Carmex. Woelbing and his wife continued production of Carmex from their home and Woelbing sold the product himself from the trunk of his car.

Woelbing relied on word-of-mouth advertising to increase interest in his product. As demand increased, the company moved first to a small rented manufacturing facility in 1957, and then to a large-scale production facility in 1976. After Alfred Woelbing retired, Carma Labs was operated by his son and grandsons. Alfred died in 2001 at the age of 100

Cold Sore Remedy

2006-03-17T03:24:00.000-08:00

Cold Sore Remedy..

Ingredients: alcohol L-Lysine Abreva ice cubes.

Instructions: I have been suffering from cold sores for about 10 years. They are the most resented gift from an ex-boyfriend! I have tried everything you can imagine and have found that they build up a tolerance for every treatment I use.

Also, you must keep in mind that there is no cure and you can only try to prevent them from recurring, and when you get a blister it has to go through the full cycle before it goes away.

I have found that the best prevention is L-Lysine. I take a pill daily and then increase the dose when a blister forms. The sore does not completely go away, but it doesn't get as huge as they use to get.

Also, I prefer to pop the blisters with a sterile needle and apply alcohol or peroxide. This helps dry them out faster, speeding the healing time.
Hope this helps

Most drug stores no longer sell this, but I've found it recently in Chinese grocery stores.

Alum powder works wonders. It does taste nasty, but it really knocks out cold sores and fever blisters. Just moisten your finger, get a little bit of that powder on the sore, and it dries it right up.

Treat Cold Sores, Sore Throats, and Warts Naturally

2005-12-14T05:21:00.000-08:00

Tired of costly medications, prescriptions and time lost for doctor’s appointments, I found myself on a constant search for alternative, affordable health solutions to heal such common painful infections as sore throats, cold sores and warts. Everyone has had at least one of these in their lifetime. The quick methods below will remove warts, clear painful sore throats and heal unsightly cold sores. A benefit of these treatments is that they can be started immediately. No waiting for appointments, waiting for your prescription from the drug store or lengthy suffering before starting the healing process.

Over the years I have personally used these remedies for all members of my family with repeated success. A recent research venture (by who?) uncovered that many others have successfully used these remedies as well. What’s even better is you start healing faster and in the case of warts you can avoid painful removal treatments.

The following scenarios are my own therefore I know the remedies work first hand. They are not intended to be a substitute for medical care. If you have a medical problem you should consult your doctor.

Sore throats

Apple cider vinegar is a natural antiseptic – it kills germs on contact. Think about this - by the time you go to the doctor and have your throat swabbed you can be gargling every 2 hours and have the infection cleared. If your throat feels worse by the end of the day – see your doctor. The Ohio State University Hospital prescribes apple cider vinegar for ear infections.

The Treatment:

As soon as you know your throat is infected, gargle every 2 hours with apple cider vinegar. Make sure you allow a small amount of it to go down your throat (yes, swallow it). Have a glass of water ready to rinse your mouth immediately to avoid the uncomfortable sourness from the vinegar.

Cold Sores

A three day cure – believe it! A cold sore arrived three days before I was to be the maid of honor for my friend. My normal ten day cure wasn’t going to be good enough. I frantically did my research and found this remedy in the Prevention Magazine.

Yogurt was the answer. Yogurt is made from the living culture lactobacillus acidophilus and is the active ingredient that will heal your cold sore. The awkward part of this is you will have a white blob on your face, but I think it’s worse to have an unsightly cold sore.

The Treatment:

Repeatedly cover the cold sore with plain yogurt- every time it feels dry. Take five yogurt tablets (1,000mg) 3 times a day, with each meal This sounds like a lot, but it’s only concentrated yogurt. The more you stick to this plan the higher the likelihood the cold sore will be gone in three days

It’s imperative to purchase the yogurt and yogurt capsules that contain living bacteria (kept refrigerated). More readily found at health food stores.

Warts

Desperate to avoid having my ten year old daughter’s large plantar warts burned or frozen off I had nothing to lose trying this solution. My second daughter, in her early teens, also developed plantar warts. She didn’t have the patience to work with me using this method. After a while the warts spread across the balls of both her feet, an area covering 1” x 3” on each foot, making it difficult for her to walk. She wanted a quick fix and decided to try the burn off method. After 4 sessions it was too painful for her, thank goodness, because it was too painful for me to watch. She agreed to work with me on the Vitamin method. Over a 2 week course the roots blackened and painlessly could be removed as her foot slowly healed back to normal. Today you would never know her feet were so badly deformed with warts – they never reoccurred.

The Treatment:

Vitamin E

1. Every morning and every night soak the wart with vitamin E (the highest I.U. you can buy)

2. Cover it with bandaids so the wart stays saturated

3. Take one capsule of vitamin E a day (it didn’t work for us if we skipped this part)

4. Continue this for 1-2 weeks, as the wart loosens and turns fibrous you can safely remove the particles.

5. The vitamin E will also aid in the healing of the skin.

Alternative Treatment:

Garlic has been reported as another highly effective solution to removing warts I haven’t personally tried this, but because of the amazing healing properties of garlic I would definitely try it.

1. Rub crushed garlic on the wart
2. Cover with bandaids
3. A blister will form and the wart begins to fall off
4. Continue with vitamin E until the skin heals.

These types of treatments have been used for centuries and too often we are accustomed to thinking the drug store has all the answers. What have you got to lose using products you already absorb or consume through foods?

Canker Sores Are Not Cold Sores

2005-11-01T04:11:00.000-08:00

If a canker sore appears inside your mouth, you may find it difficult to distinguish it from a cold sore.

Canker sores are not caused by the oral herpes virus, and the treatment is different.

Canker sores—tiny, shallow ulcers that cause mouth pain for about five to
0 days—usually occur on the tongue or inside the lips or cheeks.

Research suggests that canker sores develop as a response to a localized trauma or irritation.

Unlike cold sores, canker sores are not contagious and may be treated with a steroid ointment.

When Are Cold Sores Most Contagious?

2005-10-24T03:57:00.000-07:00

Cold sores are considered to be most contagious when the blisters have burst open and have begun to weep fluid.

This is because the liquid held in these blisters contains literally millions of herpes simplex virus particles.

During an outbreak, the population of virus particles becomes less and less as the cold sore runs its course.

There is a much smaller amount of virus particles present when the sore is healing and when the scab has formed.

However, as there are still virus particles present throughout every phase of the cold sore outbreak the infected area is still considered to be contagious until the skin has completely healed.

If you know that you have come into contact with the virus in the past few minutes or so (e.g. If you or your partner have just touched an infected area) the simple action of washing your hands and the infected area with soap and warm water can help to sweep away the virus from your hands and other areas.

By doing this you can help avoid the virus from spreading further.

Helpful Dietary Changes

2005-10-19T04:20:00.000-07:00

The herpes simplex virus has a high requirement for the amino acid, arginine.

On the other hand, the amino acid, lysine, inhibits viral replication.

Therefore, a diet that is low in arginine and high in lysine may help prevent or treat herpes outbreaks. Several studies have shown that increasing lysine intake can reduce the recurrence rate of cold sores.

Although people with herpes simplex reportedly consume about the same amount of arginine and lysine in their diet as do people without cold sores it is conceivable that adjusting the intake of these amino acids may be beneficial.

For that reason, many doctors advise people with cold sores to avoid foods with high arginine-to-lysine ratios, such as nuts, peanuts, and chocolate. Nonfat yogurt and other nonfat dairy can be a healthful way to increase lysine intake.

Cold Sores ... Not a Trivial Matter

2005-10-17T03:27:00.000-07:00

Or What Do you Think?

.....Each year, 150 million people in the United States (one-third of the population) suffer from the pain and embarrassment of cold sores. With a total of 380 million outbreaks annually nationwide, the average cold sore sufferer will have two to six outbreaks, lasting approximately seven to 10 days each.

In the United States alone, more than $1 billion is spent every year on both over-the- counter (OTC) and prescription (Rx) treatments to help bring relief to this growing epidemic..

....The human herpes viruses affect more than 90 percent of the world's six billion inhabitants. While there are likely numerous variants, eight are known to infect man. Of these, the three that infect the skin and/or mucous membranes and become latent in the nervous system are perhaps the best known.

These three are herpes simplex virus - type 1 (HSV-1 - the cold sore virus), herpes simplex virus, type 2 (HSV-2 - the genital herpes virus), and Varicella zoster virus (VZV - the chicken pox and shingles virus).....

Can The Virus Be Transferred To Another Area Of The Body?

One kind of complication involves spreading the virus particles from the location of an outbreak to other places on the body by touching the infection. The fingers, eyes, and other body areas can accidentally become infected in this way.

Preventing self-infection is simple. Do not touch the area during an outbreak. If you do, wash your hands as soon as possible with soap and warm water. This will help prevent the virus from spreading further.

Some guidelines...

Don't kiss someone with cold sores, and if you're the sufferer, don't let them kiss you.

Don't share utensils, cups, towels... anything that might have come in contact with a cold sore or with the cold sore sufferer's saliva.

Avoid oral sex when cold sore blisters are present.

Don't touch your cold sores.

Keep cold sores clean and dry.

Live a healthy lifestyle, including good nutrition, exercise and plenty of rest.

Don't use saliva to wet contact lenses.

Use a medication like Choraphor Treatment to stop pain and help prevent secondary infections to promote healing.

Cold Sore Home Remedy Tips

This was just a few home remedies tips for cold sores...

How Is The Cold Sore Virus Spread?

2005-10-10T23:02:00.000-07:00

If a person has an active cold sore on their lip the virus particles can be transferred to any part of the body that they kiss, including the mouth, face or the genitals.

Keeping this in mind, it is very important to avoid kissing and oral sex during an active bout of cold sores.

It should also be made aware that the virus is considered to be contagious from the very first sign of an outbreak (including the tingling, itching stage) until the area is completely healed again.

It is important to take precautions during an active cold sore outbreak to prevent the virus from spreading. Treatments such as Choraphor and Zovirax can help to shorten the duration of the outbreak dramatically.

Herpes and cold sores are most easily spread when a sore is present, but, the virus can also be spread at other times too.

Some people notice itching, tingling or other sensations before they see anything on their skin. These are called "Prodromal Symptoms" and they warn that the virus may be present on the skin.

Herpes is most likely to be spread from the time these first symptoms are noticed until the area is completely healed and the skin looks normal again.

Contact with the infected area (including oral sex, kissing and touch) is very risky during this time.

It is also possible to transmit virus particles to another person through intermediate objects such as a drinking glass, eating utensil, lip stick, lip gloss, toothbrush, or even a face cloth.

Are Cold Sores Contagious?

2005-10-10T03:53:00.000-07:00

Yes. Cold sores are caused by the Herpes simplex virus and, if the virus particles are transferred to another person they too can become infected.

Cold sores are typically spread by direct skin-to-skin contact with the virus. Kissing or rubbing against the infected area are common examples of how the virus particles can be transferred.

Skin Cream Treats Cold Sores, But With Risks!

This article is interesting and I urge you to read it ...

Aldara linked to possible severe inflammation, according to a report
Updated: 1:09 p.m. ET Sept. 14, 2005

Aldara cream can delay the return of cold sores, but it can cause severe inflammation, according to a report in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases.
Studies in guinea pigs found the cream reduced sore formation during and after treatment, Dr. David I. Bernstein of the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and colleagues note. He and his colleagues hypothesized that Aldara (generic name, imiquimod) could boost the body’s defenses against the herpes virus, which causes cold sores, and delay the return of the lesions.
To investigate, they compared Aldara with an inactive “vehicle” cream in 47 patients .....

What Are Some Of The Symptoms Of A Cold Sore?

2005-10-04T23:14:00.000-07:00

Before a cold sore appears the area will sometimes tingle, feel slightly raised and may appear red and inflamed.

This pain or tingling sensation is called the prodrome (or warning symptom) and typically occurs 1 to 2 days before the cold sore appears.

A cold sore generally appears as a small, fluid-filled blister which goes through a cycle of phases. The blister will usually weep (ulcerate) and form a scab or 'crusting' before healing and disappearing completely.

The duration of a typical cold sore outbreak may last from 8 to 12 days

What Causes Or "Activates" A Cold Sore Recurrence?

2005-10-04T00:31:00.000-07:00

There are many factors that can influence or "trigger" a cold sore outbreak, however, it seems to be related to times when the immune system is lowered or run down.

Cold sore outbreaks can sometimes be triggered by the following:

Being run-down
Menstruation Cycle
Pregnancy
Drinking a lot of alcohol
Exposure of the area to strong sunlight
Conditions that compromise a person's immune system (where the body's immune system is not functioning normally)
Prolonged periods of stress
Fatigue
Ultraviolet light
Skin irritation (such as sunburn)
Diet and certain foods
Another illness (especially with fever)
Temperature extremes
Steroid medication (e.g., asthma medication)

Anything that lowers your immune system or causes local injury can trigger recurrences.

How Do You Get Cold Sores?

2005-10-04T00:29:00.000-07:00

Cold sores are generally contracted from skin to skin contact with an infected area.
For example, if someone has a cold sore on their lip they can pass on the virus to another person's mouth through kissing.

The usual incubation period of the virus (time before any symptoms show) is approximately two to twelve days after the first exposure to the virus.

As most people contract cold sores before the age of seven, it is common for a person not to remember their first or 'primary' cold sore outbreak.

Once infected with cold sores, the virus remains inside the body in a latent (sleeping) state. Throughout a person's life the virus can then become "activated" causing a cold sore recurrence.

What is the difference between Canker sores and Cold sores?

2005-10-03T03:58:00.000-07:00

Cold sores or fever blisters are caused by the herpes simplex virus and are usually relatively easy to identify.

There is another condition which causes ulcers inside the mouth known as Canker sores which are not a form of herpes, however, they are often confused and mistaken for cold sores.

Canker sores are ulcerations, especially of the lip or oral mucosa and can be caused by acute stress, trauma to the area in your mouth, allergies, or by a reaction to a particular bacteria.

Canker sores are not considered to be contagious. Cold sores and mouth herpes on the other hand are caused by the herpes simplex virus and can be very contagious.

Where do cold sores usually appear?

2005-10-03T03:50:00.000-07:00

Cold sores are usually confined to the mouth area (particularly on and around the lip).
Less commonly, cold sores can occur on other facial areas such as above the mouth, the nose, nostrils, cheek or chin.

Cold sores can also appear on the fingers, this is referred to as 'Herpes Witlow'.
Cold sores do not usually occur inside the mouth, however if they do, it is most likely on the gums or hard palette (roof of the mouth).

If the lesion appears inside the mouth, especially on the soft tissue, it is most likely to be a canker sore, not a cold sore. When cold sores reoccur they will typically appear in the same location that they did during previous outbreaks.

How common are cold sores?

2005-10-03T03:48:00.000-07:00

Cold sores are very common. It is estimated that 80% percent of the American population have been exposed to the Herpes simplex virus (which is the virus that causes cold sores).

An interesting fact is that although a person has been infected with the herpes and cold sore virus, they may not necessarily experience an outbreak. This is because some people's immune systems have the ability to completely suppress the virus.

Are cold sores really Herpes?

2005-10-03T03:47:00.000-07:00

Yes. cold sores are caused by a type of the herpes virus, but, it is rarely the same virus strand that causes genital Herpes. Cold sores are typically caused by Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1).

Genital herpes on the other hand is usually caused by a different strand of the virus called Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV2).

However, it is possible to transfer the different viruses to other areas of the body. HSV1 (or cold sores) can be transferred to the genitals through oral sex. In the same way, HSV2 (or genital herpes) can be transferred to the mouth.
