There are many people who are being diagnosed at a high rate with herpes simplex virus whether be type 1 (cold sores) or type 2 (genital). This is a virus you can't cure but it can be treated with medication. Other ways of preventing outbreaks can understand the ways the herpes virus can be triggered. A good way to prevent outbreaks is by having good hygiene, getting proper sleep, exercise, and eating right. This also goes with having positive self esteem. If you have positive self esteem, you will be more aware of the way your body reacts, if you get sick. When the immune system gets run down, the body will get sick, and then you will have an outbreak of the herpes virus whether by cold sores or genital herpes. The nerve cells lie dormant in the nerve cells in the lower portion of your back. When the body gets sick, the herpes simplex virus get released from the nerve cells stored in the lower back and the place of where you were infected will be where the outbreak happens.
Many people believe cold sores are only when someone gets sick and it breaks out. This is information people need to learn because it does come out when you are sick, but it is from the herpes simplex virus type 1. When you have an outbreak, just means that your body's immune system has been run down or is low, this triggers the herpes simplex virus to cause an outbreak. Other ways the virus is triggered is by being in the sun, rapid weather changes, stress, depression, menstruation, sexual intercourse, and what was said earlier immune suppression. As you can see there are many causes that can cause you to have an outbreak.
If you are aware of what your body feels like when your immune system is running low, then you could start doing preventative measures to reduce the number of outbreaks you have in a year. You could either get some sleep or if you have the paresthesia feeling in an area that you have the outbreaks then take your medication and you could prevent the outbreak from actually coming out. Being aware of how your body reacts is very important for you to know so you can stay healthy with as few outbreaks as possible. The fewer outbreaks you have will help you feel happier as a person.
The triggers can happen very quickly, so if you don't have your medications close to you then you may be in a position that you can't get to your medications right away like being at work, which in turn would give the virus plenty of time to build and an outbreak would occur. If that happens then just taking medications won't really do anything for you. Once the outbreak happens, taking your medications may decrease the amount of days but really won't do as much as it could if you were able to use it when you feel the outbreak about to happen. Save you medication if you already have a full blown outbreak because its course has already started. Medication is very expensive and you should use it to prevent the outbreak.
