Best Answer

Herpes doesn't really 'attack' any thing.

It breaks out when you're run down by stress or while you're immune system is lowered. All oral herpes does is cause annoying and or embarassing cold sores or fever blisters on or aroun the lips.

It's very common to have oral herpes, it's not life threatening or dangerous to the rest of the body.

How do you holisticly treat oral herpes?

herpes is a virus that infects the nerve cells in your body. there are several serotypes (varieties) but the most common are HSV1 (herpes simplex virus 1) and HSV2. while HSV1 is more commonly "oral" herpes and HSV2 is more commonly "genital" herpes, both can be transmitted to either location. There is no treatment for herpes. once you have been infected, you are infected for life. A person can only treat the symptoms of herpes to make the outbreaks less painfull and of a shorter duration. There are no holistic remedies that have been scientifically proven.
