Herpes is a viral disease that generally affects the mouth and the genital areas. The virus called HSV-2 causes the genital virus. HSV 1 is responsible for the oral herpes.

The action of HSV 1 virus is generally seen among children. It is difficult to identify the symptoms at first though. Usually, when you see sores and blisters in the mouth of the kid for the
first time you don't generally associate them with herpes. But when this goes on for some time the child continue to play and associate with their friends in the normal way, but in the process they
have caused the disease to spread. The virus spreads very fast through physical contact.

Herpes attack is the peculiar one. The first attack is termed as the primary episode. When this subsides, it is not all over. It remains dormant in the nerves nearby, only to re-emerge
periodically and cause further attacks. But once you know that it is herpes and not the common sores, the treatment perspective changes. With proper precautions, the immune system gradually builds
up and once you know who the attacker is you take steps to reduce the impact of the attack.

Unfortunately, there is no permanent cure for this disease. The infected body will always remain the storehouse for the virus. As for the home cure, certain precautionary steps and matters
relating to hygiene need to be understood thoroughly before putting them into practice.

Well, two things are important here. You need to stop the herpes attack from happening again and secondly, you should not become the transmission 'tower' to transfer this fast-spreading
disease.

Some of the suggested steps that you can use at home to prevent the effect of this disease are discussed below.

1.After you get in contact with the person suffering from herpes, wash your hands.

2.Do not touch the sores with hands and not with the cloth even. Use cotton for the purpose and throw it after use.

3.The affected area needs to be cleaned and kept dry.

4.Until the herpes is healed, sexual contact is not recommendable. Genital herpes is a difficult condition. For the virus may be life long and under such a situation sexual activity must be
avoided at all the costs. You will be the cause of spreading the disease to your sexual partner, if you violate this discipline.

5.During the peak of the outbreak, the pain will be unbearable, but there are natural ways to control it to some extent. The main care is related to the type of dressing you indulge in. Wear
loose cotton clothes and try to keep the area dry.

6.Make liberal use of the ice packs by holding it on the affected part, for short durations. Take warm water bath. Carefully dry the affected areas with cotton.

All in all, herpes is a disease that can not be cured, but must be endured. But you can counter the magnitude of its nuisance to a great extent, if you keep all these natural aspects of care in
mind!
