Guest guest Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Namaste, Barbara, Outbreaks are caused by stress, too much friction, sexual contact during outbreak or close to an outbreak. There is a prescription out there, but I don't know anything about it and prefer holistic treatments. Outbreaks will become less and less and only erupt under great stress. Ice therapy (of course, wrapped in 100% sterile cotton) helps. Keep clean with an antiseptic, antipuretic such as Tea Tree Oil. Use Bach's Stress Formula. Vitmains C, E, and B12 are indicated. Also, Kyolic Garlic tabs and Siberian Ginseng strengthen your immune system. Improve the quality of your immune system by removing all toxins from your diet. Try to eat organically; stay away from caffiene; drink a lot of Xango and water to flush your system. Do a detox (I use Sonne's organic products-#7 Detox liquid and #9 Powdered Fiber. You can buy directly from them and not have to pay the mark-up from the health food store). Approach this from the total person outlook from all angles: emotions affect and will lower our quality of health. If you have depression or SAD, seek light therapy, color therapy, water therapy and aromatherpy. Reiki, Magnified Healing and QiGong treatments would assist or totally heal. Sleep is also a very important ingredient in your healing process. If you can't sleep properly, your body can't heal and renew itself...get at least 7 hours a night. If you have trouble sleeping, pure Melatonin is excellent. Meditation also helps you to get in the right frame of mind for relaxation. I listen to Tibetian Medication CD's. May you have a complete and total healing.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 The herb Melissa is also very good for this. You can get it in creams, or just bruise the leaves and apply topically.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I have both oral and genital, I have yet to do the natueral remedies but i am looking into it more and more. I have an average of 1 genital a year and yes it is usually due to a extreme stressful situation. As far as Oral over the last month I am haveing issue because the guy I see has a beard and whiskers seem to be irritateing it alot worse, it is in just one spot though the right hand corner of my mouth. I have been useing this over the counter herpeies lip cream and I will usually use a jalapino which seems to make it go away fast, but a far as the whiskers causeing the irritation I am not sure what to do with it. He is willing to shave it off, but I like the look of it on him. cynthia Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Mobile. Try it now.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Hi Al, According to Hulda Clark (author of " The Cure for All Diseases " ), the following things can trigger an outbreak: 1-aflatoxin-infested or moldy food 2-sudden cold and heat 3-trauma from chaffing and friction 4-lowered immunity in combination with other factors (this is a given) 5-constant exposure to toxic substances (includes mercury almagam tooth fillings, which keeps immunity lowered) 6-trigger foods: peanuts, chocolate, coffee, citrus etc. In Hulda's book, to prevent an outbreak, avoid or minimize the above trigger factors: use natural soaps, lotions, and cleansers to rid your body of nickel, chromate, titanium, zirconium, aluminum, and benzalkonium; do your laundry with borax and washing soda to rule out detergent as a trigger factor. As soon as you feel the tingling sensation of an impending outbreak, take one capsule of cayenne and 8 lysine tablets (of 500 mg each). The cayenne slows down the movement of the virus along the nerve root. She also recommends making a lysine paste: Crush a lysine tablet, add a pinch of vitamin C powder and a pinch of zinc oxide. Wet a bit of it with water to make a paste. Apply to lesions. Hope this helps. By the way, how is that cool book coming along (the one you mentioned to Harry and me last year)? I'm actually looking forward to reading it. Best,Mei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who have these herpes outbreaks can often feel it coming on a few hours before the blisters actually erupt. When Long Dan Xie Gan Tang is taken at that stage, the formula can dramatically limit the intensity and length of time in which the lesions are evident. It isn't quite as effective taken after the fact, but probably still helps. I've heard of patients reporting an outbreak coming in, they slam down the Long Dan Xie Gan Tang and the entire outbreak is averted. Strictly speaking, this formula is for damp-heat in the Liver/Gallbladder. Because herpes lesions present with a red base, they are assumed to be hot in nature. Because they are fluid filled vesicles, they are considered to be damp. And because they tend to arise somewhere along the Liver channel, they're considered " damp heat in the Liver " which includes the Liver channel. Because the Liver is sensitive to stress, and herpes lesions are often aggravated or induced by emotional stress, this too supports the (Chinese) Liver involvement. The Liver channel passes through the " external genitalia " which explains the genital location of the herpes. The Liver channel also spreads out over the ribs which is how Herpes Zoster presents. Finally, the Liver channel circles the lips, hence the oral form of herpes or " cold sores " . Biomedicine might suggest that this formula is antiviral, which it is. If the outbreaks are more aggravated by fatigue, consider Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan. This is for a slightly different presentation. I myself have not run into this situation myself, but it comes from a trusted Chinese medicine dermatologist from the famous " Gu " family of Shanghai. The premise on the use of Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan: This formula is used for deficiency heat. So, it nourishes the yin of the body and clears away the heat that arises from that lack of body fluids. (Lack of body fluids is rarely associated with not drinking enough water, but rather the body's ability to absorb it.) Sorry its been so long since I could respond in detail to this thread, but hey, once you got herpes, you got it for good. No hurry. On the upside, as we get older, less lesions arise. At least with the genital kind. -al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
