It is indeed a scourge because there is no known herpes cure. Because the virus retreats and hides in the nerves between outbreaks (it then lies dormant), your body has a very hard time dealing with it. Herpes announces itself in an outbreak of tiny blisters mainly around the genital area which later turn into open sores. After an attack the herpes virus retreats back to the nerve endings and hides, making it difficult to treat or to find a cure. A Cure For Herpes Studies We know there is no herpes cure available, there are prescription drugs that can help suppress the herpes virus and also natural creams and lotions that will kill the virus on contact The simple fact that herpes is a virus is what makes it difficult to find a herpes cure. As a rule the immune system will deal with and destroy any viruses it finds but that fact that the herpes virus retreats and hides so well in the nerves when in the dormant phase makes finding a cure for herpes a more difficult task. Herpes Cure Drugs There is not a herpes cure, but precautions do work… Just using some common sense can go a long way to ensure you don’t come into contact with this incurable virus. Always wear a condom. This is not infallible but will help in most cases. Also oral sex is another primary source of herpes infection. Oral infections on the inside of the mouth are occurring more and more every day. So when any oral sexual activity is being considered one must also use some form of protection as well. Again, the protection is not a cure for herpes but it greatly reduces the risk of becoming infected. Chastity is the only way to not get infected from any form of sexual intercourse.

Yes indeed. Although most cold sores on the face and mouth are caused by theHSV1 virus and genital herpes is generally cause by HSV2 virus, both these herpes viruses can occur in other places.

If you or your partner have an active cold sore on your mouth while indulging in oral sex, you can potentially give your partner genital herpes. Although the virus may be slightly different, the outcome will still be the same. Painful sores on the genitals that will flare up from time to time.

The herpes virus is infectious when active. Those painful little lesions are best kept away from others until the sores are healed over with new skin. Using the latest herpes treatments will shorten the length of time your cold sore will be on your face.

Living with herpes of any nature can be made much simpler and less painful with the latest medications. At the very first tingle, or pain sensation, start your medication or topical cream straight away. Often by doing this you can prevent a full blown outbreak. At the very least you will minimize the length and severity of the outbreak.

At the slightest tingle anywhere, it is good practice to keep that part of your body away from skin contact with anyone else. Wash your hands thoroughly after applying any creams or lotions.

There are people out there who will tell you that they always kiss their boyfriend or girlfriend when they have cold sores and the other one has never caught it. These people have some sort of resistance and are the fortunate minority.

Genital herpes (HSV2) and cold sores on the mouth (oral herpes or HSV1) can both occur on other parts of your body. Care should be taken when you are dating someone with oral herpes with an active outbreak on the mouth to minimize the risk of infecting the other’s genitals.
