What is the Prognosis for herpes simplex virus type 2?
Herpes simplex I and II have the same symptoms. The chief difference is that Type I recurs less often. Symptom include an itching, tingling, numb, or burning sensation followed closely by blisters, which may turn white and then erode to leave small ulcers. Typically, these bumps are smaller than pimples and are painful, although someone who's had the infection for a while, or has had the other type of herpes for a while, may have few symptoms and may not even notice an outbreak.
During an initial outbreak in someone without a history of either kind of herpes, there may also be fatigue, body aches, and low-grade fever.
It's important to get tested as soon as possible if you believe you are having a herpes outbreak. It's difficult to confirm the infection after the lesions have started to heal.

What do you need to prevent cold sore?
Clean hands, not sharing food and drink, and being careful when kissing are the best ways to avoid cold sores. The virus can be very easily transmitted.
Can lymph swell when you have sore throat from cold?
More white blood cells are being produced.
Because they multiply to kill large areas of the disease-causing pathogens. And your glands begin to swell painfully. ouch!
/\ Close but no cigar. In order to understand why lymph nodes swell you have to understand what lymph nodes do. Lymph nodes act as a filter system for Lymph Fluid, or all of the excess fluid our body produces. Lymph fluid is responsible for carrying nutrients all over the body and delivering said nutrients through the blood stream. Lymph nodes filter out infections as they are carried by the Lymph fluid from one part of the body to the other. Lymph nodes are found in several places on the body, so as an infection tries to spread, using the Lymph fluid as it's guide, the Nodes trap the infection in an attempt to eradicate it. Once the infection has been trapped your white blood cells begin to attack it aiding in the recovery process. The bi product of all of the activity and excess infection in the nodes, is swelling or pain. The nodes themselves do not multiply, they are located in several areas throughout your body, the neck, the armpit, and the groin are the most commonly noted sore areas during a sickness. If you notice tenderness in any of these areas please contact your physician as it may be a sign of infection, or something more serious.
No the chances of canker sores are very less, canker sores once there are contagious though.
Can you have cold sores on your feet?
The answer my friend is yes. I get them where I have regular contact with moisture. Between the toes, on my arch, side of my foot, I even get them on my fingers (if I wash my dishes without using gloves) and in very rare times I get them on my arms and legs(usually winter when I bundle up and then sweat). I thought at first it was something else, but medications for the ones I get on my lips (no creams this makes mine worse) seem to clear up the ones on my feet and hands too. I also know that it makes your shoes a hazard for kids. My daughter tried on a pair of my heels thinking she was cute and wouldn't you know it within a month she had them too. Good luck to you! ~MEL~ Search images of Herpetic Whitlow

How long do you live with herpes?
With medical care from an infectious disease specialist, an appropriate medication regime, and a healthy lifestyle you can expect to live a normal lifespan.
In this day and age many people can survive, and live close to a normal life when they have hiv. There is great technonlogy and medicines which can help those with hiv to live a normal life. Sometimes in bad cases people can die yound such as at the age of 20
they could live many years until the hiv virus turn into aids and once the aids get big in your body it shut down you insides and that will make u sick and also will cause death.

Valtrex is an example of prescribed medication for treating herpes. Treating, because you cannot cure herpes with any medications. What the medicine does is help control your outbreaks, which makes it less transmissible and less bothersome.
EVEN while on this medication it is still possible to spread herpes.
no cure has yet been found, just ways to suppress it.
The body is usually apt enough to heal the symptoms of the herpes virus. However, neither the body nor medical drugs can completely eliminate the virus.
If you would like to treat the symptoms, then either antiviral drugs or topical solutions are the best way to go.
No. There is no cure. It is a virus and once it is in your system it stays. Stress, sickness, and other things can trigger an outbreak.
The herpes virus can't be removed from the body.
The cure for herpes simplex includes antiviral medicines such as Acyclovir, Famciclovir, and Valacyclovir.
there isn't one. medications like valtrex can make outbreaks more infrequent, but there is no cure and you can still give it to your partner whether you're having an outbreak or not.

SIDS is not caused by immunizations. Most children get their immunizations at about four months which coincides with the average age. But children without immunizations also die of SIDS. Answer There is absolutely no medical evidence that SIDS is caused by getting your child immunized. SIDS is still a very new topic in the medical field but the most common ways to help protect your baby from SIDS is to place your child on their back when sleeping and keep all extra blankets, pillows and stuffed animals out of their crib. Immunizations are an important way to help protect your baby from several diseases that can be dangerous even deadly to them. Their systems haven't built up the immunity needed to fight infections. Answer Excerpt from: healthboards.com I have done extensive research on vaccines after almost losing my daughter from a severe reaction to the DPT vaccine. I truly believe that vaccines are in direct relation with Sids. Many children die every year or are severly damaged in some form from vaccines. The word has to be spread that they are very dangerous. I would be very interested in finding out from parents who have lost there children just how soon before they were given shots. Parents really need to research the facts on vaccines. You would be very surprised the actual facts of what your exposing your children to. PLEASE DO RESEARCH BEFORE YOU MAKE THE DECISION TO GIVE VACCINES. VISIT:
Answer2: Much research is still being down to find the causes of SIDS, why a healthy baby just fails to wake up one day. So far contributing factors like smoking and the position of the baby has been linked to causes, but no one specific things has been said to be the cause of all crib death.
Can a mother pass herpes on during birth?
If you have herpes 3 months prior to getting pregnant, you body has developed antibodies and it is less likely that you would pass it to the fetus. If you get infected while pregnant you could pass it to the fetus.
It is important if you have herpes that you let your doctor know. Herpes is typically transferred to the baby during labor through the birth canal. If you have an outbreak during labor they will do a C-Section.
How do you get rid of herpes on your lip FAST?
once herpies is contracted there is no way to get rid of it. If you have recently come into contact with bodily fluid of someone who has herpies, I recommend sterilizing the area that came into contact with rubbing alcohol. then seek medical attention
You got herpes could you kiss your 4 year old son if am not having outbreaks?
You shouldn't kiss an active lesion, if you don't already have contracted the virus. HOWEVER chances are that you already have if your child has it, as it is extremely contagious.
If you ever shared s spoon with your kid (ice cream etc... ) you probably got it and didn't notice. Most MD's do not consider HSV-1 an STD unless the sores appear in the genital area.
I've had HSV-1 since I was a kid, and my MD says it's nothing life threatening as long as you avoid exposing an active sore to anything that might be contagious via body fluids (such as HIV).
That is, in the case you get sores at all, which most people don't get.
RS, not MD, but well advised.
because it is a virus. just like the common cold there is no cure. Other answer ( smarter one) What makes herpes incurable is that it hides itself very well from the
immune system and that once someone has caught it, it remains inside that
person's body forever.
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infects epithelial cells (skin cells) and
replicate in them quite rapidly but the immune system fights off the
infection in about two weeks because the replication is high and that HSV
does not "hide" in skin cells. During the first infection, however, some
viruses also infect sensitive nerves near the site of infection and are
transported along the axons to the neuron itself where it enters a latent
stage. During this time, the virus' DNA is circular and the virus does not
express any of its proteins, which makes it "invisible" to the immune
system.
Following reactivation of the latent virus after, for example, exposure to
cold, UV light, stress, or if the patient becomes immunocompromised, the
virus migrate again towards the epithelium along the axons to infect
epithelial cells and cause lesions.
Once a neuron is infected, it remains infected for the rest of the person's
life and, depending on each individuals, reactivation can occur once, twice
or up to 20 times a year... or only once every 5, 10, 20 years!
The only thing doctors can do to help patients with herpes is to limit the
replication of the virus using antivirals that targets HSV specifically.
Some drugs already exist on the market for that (in Canada at least...).
The topic application of these drugs reduce the length of the reactivation
events by 5 to 7 days (so that people suffer 1 week instead of 2...).
Infected people can also help themselves by limiting their exposure to the
reactivating agents and to keep their immune system strong.
Scientists try to come up with new ways to fight off HSV by
developing agents that boost the immune system during a reactivation event,
or even maybe a vaccine. A vaccine against HSV is very hard to develop
since it is a very sneaky virus so that it may be quite a while before one
comes available. It seems possible though! So there is still hope to find
a way to prevent HSV infection, if not to cure it altogether.
I hope this answered your question.
