Not exactly.
When the immune system has been lowere by stress (which is a common trigger for herpes) then a break out can occur.
Your immune system fights herpes by using laser beams to deflect the herpes from attacking your immune system. They then take out riot shields and M16's to shoot/scare them off. That should tell those herpes to stay away from your immune system!
It's not something you can treat. The antibodies are the reaction of your immune system to the herpes infection. The herpes virus however, will never leave the body because it hides in the nerves, where the immune system can not atttack it. Once herpes, always herpes unfortunately
If you are infected with the herpes virus, then yes you can.
Not directly, although long-term exposure to alcohol can lower your immune system via liver damage, and this lowered immune system can cause the herpes virus that lies dormant in your system to come out and cause Bells' Palsy (along with a number of other conditions).
It does not cause herpes however the compromised immune system renders the crohns patient susceptible to a variety of illnesses including herpes zoster (shingles).
YES
A cold sore is a herpes infection For some people, their immune system suppresses the virus; for others they have outbreaks. Each persons immune system is different.
It won't hurt; the flu vaccine is non-virulent and won't lower your immune system while it makes antibodies to the influenza virus. It will still be able to fight off the Bell's Palsy virus (herpes).
yes
yes.
Since shingles (herpes zoster) is a viral infection that often emerges opportunistically after an impairment of the immune system, steroids such as prednisone taken for longer periods of time (weeks to months) may sufficiently lower the immune system as to allow this virus to become active.
yes it dose
