Herpes, a virus that affects the human nervous system, alters the DNA of nerve cells in the skin where it enters. Recurrences vary, occurring from once in a lifetime to several times a year, with an average of four outbreaks annually. Typically, these episodes take about a week to heal.
While there is no cure yet, ongoing research offers hope. Meanwhile, you can take proactive steps to manage and reduce outbreaks.
Common Triggers for Herpes Outbreaks
1. Excessive Sun Exposure
2. Dietary Choices: Chocolate, nuts, and an unhealthy diet
3. Inadequate Rest
4. Menstrual Cycle
5. Emotional and Physical Stress: Including repeated physical trauma
6. Injury or Illness with Fever
7. Surgical Trauma
8. Steroidal Medications: Such as those for asthma
Stress is a major factor in recurrent herpes outbreaks. While you can't eliminate stress, reducing it can decrease outbreak frequency. Ensuring plenty of rest and maintaining a balanced lifestyle is crucial. Significant events like weddings or graduations can trigger outbreaks, so it's important to identify personal triggers.
Managing Herpes During Pregnancy
It's essential to control genital herpes during pregnancy to protect the newborn. Although rare, neonatal herpes is a serious condition that can lead to severe complications like brain infection, seizures, prolonged hospitalization, mental retardation, and even death if the infection takes hold.
Nutritional Support
Certain nutrients and vitamins, such as beta-carotene, vitamins C and E, and zinc, can help prevent outbreaks. The amino acid lysine is known to reduce both the frequency and duration of outbreaks. Foods rich in lysine include margarine, plain yogurt, Swiss cheese, other dairy products, whey, papaya, and beets.
Conclusion
Everyone's recurrence pattern is unique, so taking all possible precautions is essential to keep the virus in remission. For more detailed information on managing herpes, visit reputable resources or consult a healthcare professional.
