There are some interesting treatments out there at the moment that you should check out. One of them is Dynamiclear and you can find this kind of genital herpes treatment at this connecting site. At the moment, you can’t really cure herpes and you will have to find some way of coping with it. Stay away from stress and try to drink lots of water. When sores appear, don’t scratch them away but instead just wait for them to go away as they will, eventually. Don’t touch them or they will blister. Don’t have sex when you have a sore attack or you will spread the disease to your partner and then they will have to live with the same problems that you do.

Genital Herpes Treatment

You life isn’t over when you have herpes and you can really cope with it if you just try. Don’t lose hope over it. Some day maybe there will be a cure for the simplex virus but don’t count on it yet. At the moment, you can try some treatments to make your life easier. It doesn’t hurt to try once and then decide which treatment is the best for you.

Here is a list of some of the more popular genital herpes treatments now available on the market.

There are many of these treatments available, some are available only as an oral prescription for antiviral treatments that fight to suppress the virus and therefore reduce the incidence of herpes outbreaks. This can save you from a lot of embarrassment later on. Remember however that there is currently no way to cure herpes and that the condition can only be treated at the moment to minimize the symptoms and chances of transmission. If you currently are looking for an alternative or an effective cure, we recommend Herpeset which is sold by an FDA registered company.

Here is a list of some of the over oral prescription treatments:

• Herpeset (recommended!)
• Acyclovir
• Famciclovir
• Valacyclovir

However, if you are embarassed enough to not want to go visit your local pharmacist for these genital herpes treatments, there are also many over the counter herpes treatments out there that you can avail of which don’t require a prescription from a doctor. The results may vary depending from person to person.

These treatments work well in:

• Making sores heal faster when you have an outbreak
• Reduce the severity of an outbreak.
• Make outbreaks come out less, or reduce the frequency
• Reduce the chances of transmitting the disease to your sex partners

In brief, individuals infected with the genital herpes virus should:

* avoid excessive heat or sunlight, which makes the irritation more uncomfortable;

* not use perfumed or antibacterial soaps, feminine deodorant, or douches;

* wear comfortable, loose fitting cotton clothing;

* take aspirin, acetaminophen (Tylenol and others), or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, Nuprin, etc.) if helpful; and

* use cool cloths on the affected area if it soothes the pain.

1. Apply lemon balm cream or salve to the affected area up to three times per day. When used regularly, lemon balm’s antiviral properties will speed healing and decrease the frequency of recurring outbreaks.

2. Combine ½ teaspoon dried sage leaves with 1 cup boiling water. Allow the mixture to steep for up to 15 minutes. Strain the herbs from the liquid. Add 1 teaspoon powdered ginger to the resulting tea and stir until dissolved. Drink up to 3 cups of the tea until the cold sores have cleared.

3. Take four acidophilus capsules three times per day with 1 cup of milk as soon as burning or itching is experienced. If taken soon enough, this is one of the natural cures that can prevent the outbreak completely.

4. Rub pure aloe vera juice on the affected area at the first sign of an outbreak to prevent the sore from forming. Rub aloe vera juice on an established sore to speed the healing process.

There have been reports that garlic helps in providing a cure for herpes.

We are not so sure. For one, there seem to be no studies that attest to the fact that this herb is an effective remedy for herpes. True that garlic herpes has properties that strengthen the immune system and your heart as all good vegetables/herbs/fruits do but as a direct treatment for a herpes outbreak? We seriously don’t think so. The best way to get to the bottom of this and most other rumors is to read the paperwork on it. If there are any academic studies that point to a direct correlation of having to swallow a lot of garlic and preventing cold sores or a herpes outbreak or just simply getting rid of herpes all together, we woudl have heard of it by now. The best thing is to stick to the treatments that the doctor recommends, keep a healthy body, live a stress free life. This way, you reduce the incidents of herpes, reduce the incidence of transmission and get as close to living a semi-normal life as much as possible.

How close are scientists to developing a cure for herpes, figuratively speaking will we be seeing a break through in 10, 20, or even 30 years?

There is both good news and bad news with regards to the herpes virus. The good news is that researchers have made serious advancements and now better understand the what causes most of the herpes virus. On the other side of the coin there is very little funding for that research.

A leading herpes expert, Bryan Cullen, the director at the Center for Virology at Duke University is hopeful that a cure for herpes could come within 10 years maybe earlier if the funding is there.

At least 20% of the population over age 12 in the U.S. is affected by herpes. It is caused by a virus which is either the herpes simplex virus type 1 or what we call HSV-1 or the herpes simplex virus type 2 or HSV-2. They can both cause genital herpes, but the difference is that HSV-1 usually infects the mouth and produces cold sores.

Despite funding challenges, Cullen and his team of researchers are getting close to a cure. Recent studies has led to the identification of the pathway herpes takes as it infects. They also discovered how herpes embeds itself into the cells and how it eludes treatment. Because of these breakthroughs researchers believe they are now really closer to developing a cure.

There are drugs out there that can at least suppress herpes. Three antiviral drugs: acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir are commonly recommended to subdue outbreaks.

In general though:

1) People are often allergic to products containing petroleum and even some products labeled “hypoallergenic”. Occasionally people are allergic to their toothpaste and more often to their lipstick/lip balm. Many people are allergic to Neosporin and Chap Stick. I recommend Mentholatum Lip Balm often. It comes in tube, like Chap Stick. There are also homeopathic remedies to detox the body of what it is allergically responding to.

2) Sores on the outside corners of the mouth are usually vitamin deficiencies–especially vitamin B6.

3) Sores on the top and bottom lip edge are often allergies to something being put on the lips and often this can be aggravated by sunshine.

4) Canker sores, herpes sores and cold sores are often related to what it is in the person’s life that they are “biting their tongue” about or not saying out loud and is also accentuated by stress, poor diet, not enough raw foods, and sleep issues (in combination of course).

5) Sores inside the lip and under the tongue can sometimes be viral in origin or an allergy to something. I know a few people who are allergic to nutmeg which causes a little vesicle to form under the tongue on the frenulum.

6) White sores on the mouth are usually caused from yeast (Candida). Try getting a lip product that contains Myrrh essential oil. You will also have incorporate lifestyle changes to overcome the yeast inside your system.

I hope those clues can empower you to figure out the cause of the most common lip challenges. Sometimes they make your lips itch, they can make you feel ugly, and you certainly don’t want to kiss anybody! We don’t want that for you as loving yourself is the most important thing you can do for your family and your planet!

Genital herpes outbreaks can sometimes be triggered by the following:

* Being run-down

* Suffering from other genital infections (affecting the local skin area)

* Menstruation Cycle

* Pregnancy

* Drinking a lot of alcohol

* Sun

* Stress and anxiety

* Fatigue

* Ultraviolet light

* Friction or damage to the skin, caused by, for example, sexual intercourse, may also lead to a recurrence

* Diet and certain foods

* Fever

* Temperature extremes

If you have herpes or suspect that you have it, you’ll need to learn about the symptoms. The best thing you can do is arm yourself with information so you know what to do.

If you suspect you have herpes, your doctor can help you maintain and manage it.

The first thing you need to realize is that symptoms don’t usually develop right away. It could take weeks, and almost a month for anything to appear.

Don’t think that you’re home free after having contact with the herpes virus.

People experience the symptoms in different ways. But there are some things that are common across many people.

They may feel a tingling sensation in the affected area as the first sign. Within a few days, this tingling turns into an eruption of blisters and sores.

This area is usually very painful with all of the sores that are present there. At this point, you will need to wash your hands after you’ve touched the area, and make sure not to come into contact with anyone else.

These sores are one of the main signs, and they are the most embarrassing. The area may begin to ooze and crust over, making it a very unpleasant sight.

Definitely do not pick at these sores, or you could spread the virus to other parts of your body and slow the healing process down.

Some people get a severe outbreak, while others get a very small one or none at all. It is careful to be diligent in getting tested if you’re not sure if you have herpes or not.

Herpes are so different for different people that you cannot rule anything out.

Also, keep in mind that painful sores are the only symptom. A good number of people experience what seems like the flu.

A small fever may develop, leaving you feeling a bit achy and nauseous. That is why some people don’t’ know they have herpes, when it presents itself this way; it can be difficult to determine.

Another common symptom is having the lymph nodes swell up in the groin area. This is an indication that there is something very wrong with the genital region. Herpes is certainly not a healthy or good thing to have.

If you have herpes, you’ll want to understand they things you can expect. These symptoms differ in severity for different people, so its best to learn the pattern your body takes when you experience an outbreak.

Now that I have confirmed this works, I would like to share with you a very easy way to make cold sore medicine that works incredibly well; and it’s made from weed. This medicine has worked so much better for me than any OTC or Rx treatment.
Lastly, I can’t take credit for this I found it on a website while searching google and am simply spreading knowledge.
Ingredients:
0.5 grams of the strongest bud you can get
1 oz of strong alcohol (at least 70% and make sure its clear. Supposedly Iso Alcohol works but I’ve only used Devil’s Springs)

Step 1: Fill a container (like an old Rx or glass bottle) with 1 oz of alcohol.
Step 2: Break up the .5g of bud into the jar but make sure its very finely done (may not want to use a grinder in case of losing THC)
Step 3: Leave them in a cool dark place (i use a freezer) for 2-4 weeks, shaking often (every 1-3 days)

FINISHED

Now the next time you feel a blister coming on simply dip a Q-tip into the solution (don’t need much at all) and apply to the area. I dab it on, wait 10 seconds, then dab it again and chuck the Q-tip. Do this 3-4 times a day until the blister is fully gone.
After using this multiple times and letting someone else try it I can tell you it works incredibly well. Once I apply it, if i keep up with it, the blister will virtually stop and start healing by roughly the next day. No prescription I have ever used can come close to the effectiveness of this. Apparently the THC stops the virus from replicating. The type a bud I used I’d consider headies if compared to medical CA nug (which I didn’t have access to at the time of the experiment). The original experimenter believes this may actually stop the virus from coming back in that same place too. I have not had repeat blisters in the same area since. Please leave feedback as to how this works for you and let everyone know because I know cold sores suck.
