Can Mouth Ulcers Cause Genital Herpes
Cold Sore Treatment – Fever Blisters Help by Dee Cohen
A cold sore or fever blister is painful and can occur on the lip, genital area or other places on the skin and the mucous membranes. They start often with a tingle feeling and then grow into a sore which may itch. Keep in mind that this can be contagious during an outbreak so use caution around others. Many people are upset by catching a cold sore from a romantic encounter as it is something that is now in your system for life.
Please note that a cold sore symptom or fever blister outbreak is not the same as an aphthous ulcers or canker sores. These are similar in appearance but appear inside the mouth they are not caused by HSV. People on chemotherapy treatments may get canker sores in the mouth but these are not cold sores.
Lysine and zinc supplements are mentioned by some for helping the immune system against cold sores. For myself, I find if I eat peanut butter I may get a cold sore outburst on my lip, but if I take lysine at same time I won’t. The amino acid ratio is very important in our systems. Some people find that argine will upset their system and cause an outbreak and this is in a high ratio in some body building formulas and supplements. If you take this to bulk up and tend towards cold sores, a lysine supplement can be helpful.
Sometimes before you get a cold you can get a cold sore because your body is not working optimally and you may not be sleeping enough. Be sure as well to always use sunblock on your lip when you are outdoors as I know I can get a fever blister on my lip if it is not protected due to UV lighting.
The application of ice as well as tea bags are two home remedies for cold sores that are advised to help to minimize the pain and inflammation. Tannic acid (in tea) has anti-viral properties and ice is always good to reduce inflammation. Neither of these are a cure but still can be an aid.
Most outbreaks of cold herpes sores are preceded by a sensation of burning, itching or tingling in the area prior to the blistering becoming visible. At times the cold sore will be dry and it forms a crust at the end stage. You are still contagious at this point however. Do not think that you can’t pass the virus on just because it is no longer red or bleeding.
Traditional natural remedies that purport to ease the pain and length include acidopholous, grapefruit seed extract, aloe juice and b-12 supplements. Though some people say vaseline will stop the cracking, I found this spread my cold sore to create a second one next to it so I cannot recommend the vaseline.
They haven’t found a cure for fever blisters and cold sores yet but you can find comfort in knowing that with a good system of prevention as well as measures you take with the initial tingle the length, severity and frequency can be greatly minimized and you don’t have to live in a crisis mode with this.

Selfheal (Prunella vulgaris; Xia Ku Cao) 5:1 Extract Powder 100 gm: V (Special Order) $34.25 Used as an infusion, decoction and lotion.Selfheal (Self Heal), also called Heal-All, can be used as an herbal remedy for minor throat ailments by making a tea and gargling. The tea is also used to treat diarrhea and fevers internally and wounds, ulcers, soars, and bruises. The Chinese have traditionally used the tea and the decoction to treat kidney ailments, conjunctivitis, boils, heat in the liver, and scrofula. Research supports the idea that Heal-All does posses antibiotic, hypotensive, and anti-mutagenic qualities. The plant does contain ursolic acid, which is a diuretic and an ant-tumor compound.Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’:Astringent, styptic and tonic. Self-Heal is still in use in modern herbal treatment as a useful astringent for inward or outward use. An infusion of the herb, made from 1 oz. to a pint of boiling water, and taken in doses of a wineglassful, is considered a general strengthener. Sweetened with honey, it is good for a sore and relaxed throat or ulcerated mouth, for both of which purposes it also makes a good gargle. For internal bleeding and for piles, the infusion is also used as an injection.http://my.webmd.com/content/article/65/72562.htmPrunella vulgaris Reduces Cold Sores and Lesions in AnimalsBy Jennifer WarnerReviewed By Brunilda Nazario, MD on Monday, May 19, 2003 May 19, 2003 – An experimental herpes treatment derived from an herb known as Prunella vulgaris may one day help prevent and treat both types of the herpes virus that cause cold sores and genital herpes. Researchers say preliminary tests show mice and guinea pigs treated with the herb developed significantly fewer of the cold sores and genital sores or lesions associated with herpes than untreated animals. The results of the study were presented today at the 103rd General Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology in Washington, D.C. ”Prunella vulgaris (also known as self heal) is a perennial plant found in China, the British Isles, Europe, and North America,” says researcher Song Lee of the Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada, in a news release. ”P. vulgaris has been described as a hot water infusion to treat sores in the mouth and throat, as an astringent for internal and external purposes, as a crude anti-cancer drug, and as an herbal remedy to lower high blood pressure.” In the study, researchers created a topical cream containing a compound derived from Prunella vulgaris and tested it on mice and guinea pigs infected with an experimental version of the herpes simplex virus-1, and herpes simplex-2, typically known as genital herpes. Researchers found that mice infected with herpes type 1 who received the herbal herpes treatment were significantly less likely to die of their disease than untreated mice. And guinea pigs infected with herpes type 2 and treated with the cream developed much fewer skin lesions than those who did not receive treatment. Laboratory tests also showed that Prunella vulgaris has a different type of anti-herp |

Zelitrex (Valaciclovir) 500 mg 10 tabl. $50.75 Valtrex tablets contain the active ingredient valaciclovir. Valaciclovir is known as a pro-drug. Once inside the body it is broken down into the active ingredient aciclovir, which is an antiviral medicine used to treat infections with herpes viruses. These include the viruses that cause cold sores and genital herpes (herpes simplex 1 and 2) and the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles (varicella zoster or herpes varicellae). Aciclovir works by stopping these herpes viruses from reproducing and infecting more cells in the body. Aciclovir is converted to a more active form inside cells of the body that are infected with herpes viruses. The activated aciclovir then works by blocking the action of a viral enzyme called DNA polymerase. The herpes viruses need the DNA polymerase enzyme to copy their genetic material from RNA to DNA. This process is necessary for the viruses to multiply and continue to survive. By blocking the action of DNA polymerase, aciclovir prevents the herpes viruses from multiplying. This controls the infection and helps the immune system to deal with it. Valtrex Valaciclovir is taken by mouth to treat herpes infections that cause shingles (herpes zoster). It is also taken to treat herpes simplex infections of the skin and mucous membranes, including genital herpes. Valaciclovir can be used to treat recurrent flare-ups of herpes simplex infection. It is most effective at preventing the sores from developing if treatment is started as soon as the warning signs appear. If you suffer from frequent herpes simplex flare-ups your doctor may prescribe valaciclovir for you to take regularly, to suppress the virus and prevent recurrences. Valtrex Valaciclovir taken regularly can also reduce the risk of passing the genital herpes to a sexual partner, provided safe sex practices such as condoms are used as well. However, you should still avoid sexual contact when the sores are present to avoid passing on the virus. Valtrex Valaciclovir has a further use in preventing infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) in people who have had a kidney transplant. CMV is another member of the herpes group of viruses. In healthy people this common virus normally produces symptoms milder than the common cold, but in people whose immune systems are compromised it can cause serious infection because the immune system cannot fight it. People who have had kidney transplants are given powerful medicines that suppress the immune system in order to stop it attacking the transplanted organ. However, because they suppress the immune system, these medicines also suppress the ability of the body to fight infection. Valaciclovir is therefore given to people who have received a kidney transplant, in order to help the body kill off any CMV virus |

Oral aciclovir is also valuable for preventing herpes simplex infections in people whose immune systems are supressed and cannot fight off infection, either due to disease, eg HIV and AIDS, or medical treatment, eg chemotherapy, steroids, bone marrow transplant. Aciclovir is also available as creams specifically for treating genital herpes and cold sores, and as an eye ointment for treating herpes simplex infections of the eye.

Zovirax (aciclovir) 200 mg 35 tabl. $51.75 Zovirax tablets and suspension contain the active ingredient aciclovir, which is an antiviral medicine used to treat infections with herpes viruses. (NB. Aciclovir tablets and dispersible tablets are also available without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.) The herpes viruses include the viruses that cause cold sores and genital herpes (herpes simplex 1 and 2) and the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles (varicella zoster or herpes varicellae). Aciclovir works by stopping these herpes viruses from reproducing and infecting more cells in the body. Aciclovir is converted to a more active form inside cells of the body that are infected with herpes viruses. The activated aciclovir then works by blocking the action of a viral enzyme called DNA polymerase. The herpes viruses need the DNA polymerase enzyme to copy their genetic material from RNA to DNA. This process is necessary for the viruses to multiply and continue to survive. By blocking the action of DNA polymerase, aciclovir prevents the herpes viruses from multiplying. This controls the infection and helps the immune system to deal with it. Aciclovir is taken by mouth to treat herpes infections that cause chickenpox and shingles. It is also taken by mouth to treat genital herpes and other herpes simplex infections of the skin and mucous membranes, and to prevent these infections coming back in people who suffer recurrent infections. Oral aciclovir is also valuable for preventing herpes simplex infections in people whose immune systems are supressed and cannot fight off infection, either due to disease, eg HIV and AIDS, or medical treatment, eg chemotherapy, steroids, bone marrow transplant.
