What is herpes?

The herpes simplex virus comes in several different forms, affecting approximately 90% of the American population. Over 40,000 new cases of herpes are diagnosed each day in the US – 15 million new herpes infections each year.

Highly contagious, the most common herpes infections are caused by herpes simplex 1 and herpes simplex 2. Herpes simplex 1 is the main cause of cold sores and mouth blisters (oral herpes), whilst herpes simplex 2 is the main cause of the STD (sexually transmitted disease) genital herpes. Once herpes has been contracted, it is irreversible.

Herpes outbreaks usually begin with small blisters, but other symptoms include pain, itching and burning. A tingling of the skin often indicates that a herpes outbreak is imminent. If herpes is not treated, blisters can grow, lasting up to several days, or even longer, forming scabs at the end of the cycle.

Sufferers of genital herpes also 'shed' viral particles from their genitals; this viral shedding is believed to play a significant role in the worldwide herpes epidemic.

What causes herpes?

Passed on by direct skin contact, the herpes virus is extremely contagious. Once a person has been infected, the herpes virus resides in one end of the spinal column. Whilst genital herpes occurs in the ganglia at the base of the spine, oral herpes infects the nerves at the top of the spine.

The most common cause of herpes is a weak immune system, as the virus travels down the ganglia and erupts on the surface of the skin. Blisters often reappear in the same part of the skin during further outbreaks of herpes.

A weakened immunity can be caused by illness, stress, trauma, or exposure to environmental toxins.

Herpes sufferers, through modification of lifestyle, appropriate precautions, and the use of non-prescription products and/or prescription medication, can achieve a level of control of herpes outbreaks.
