What
is Herpes?
Herpes
is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the
herpes simplex virus (HSV)
-
HSV-type
1 causes fever blisters on the mouth or face (oral
herpes)
-
HSV-type
2 typically affects the genital area (genital
herpes)
-
both
viral types can cause either genital or oral
infections
-
HSV-1
and HSV-2 usually cause “outbreaks” of
blisters and ulcers
-
The
HSV virus is destroyed by direct contact with
Dynamiclears

How
is Herpes Spread?
Direct
contact including:
-
kissing
-
touching
-
caressing
infected areas.
-
sexual
contact (vaginal, oral, or anal sex)
-
skin-to-skin
contact transmits HSV-1 and HSV-2.
-
kissing
someone if you have a cold sore can transfer the
virus and the person you kiss will get HSV
-
the
virus can be transmitted to your partner if you
have active genital herpes and have vaginal or
anal intercourse
-
if
you have a cold sore and put your mouth on a
partner's genitals (oral sex), the partner can be
infected with genital herpes. Consequently, oral
sex should be avoided if one partner has a facial
herpes attack.
-
people
who experience an episode of herpes, either facial
or genital, should consider themselves infectious
from the start of the episode to the healing of
the last ulcer
-
Occasionally,
one partner in a long-term relationship may
develop symptoms of herpes for the first time.
Often this is due to one or both of the partners
being carriers of HSV and not knowing it.
-
From
mother to baby during pregnancy or at birth.
-
One
kind of complication involves spreading the virus
from the location of an outbreak to other places
on the body by touching the sore(s). The fingers,
eyes, and other body areas can accidentally become
infected in this way.
-
Preventing
self-infection is simple. Do not touch the area
during an outbreak. If you do, wash your hands as
soon as possible.

Is
genital herpes common?
An
estimated 40 million people have genital herpes which
is a chronic viral infection. About 500,000 new people
get symptomatic herpes each year and there are even
more people without symptoms.
It
has been estimated that about 20% of the population
have genital herpes and 90% have oral herpes (cold
sores)

How
do you know if you are infected with genital herpes?
Many
infected with HSV-2 are sometimes not aware of being
infected. Symptoms of the primary episode, however,
can be quite pronounced, the primary episode usually
occurring within two weeks after the virus is
transmitted.
Lesions
usually heal within two to four weeks of outbreak.
Other symptoms may include a second occurrence of
lesions, or flu-like symptoms including:
-
fever
-
swollen
glands
-
some
people infected with HSV-2, however, do not have
lesions, or may suffer only very mild, almost
unnoticeable symptoms which are sometimes mistaken
for a rash or insect bites.
A
primary episode of genital herpes can cause several
symptomatic recurrences a year (average 4 or 5); with
most recurrences more prevalent within the first year
following the first episode.
If
you know that you or your partner are infected with
herpes you should first become aware of how herpes
can be spread and take every precaution to prevent the
virus from spreading. Use Dynamiclears to speed up the
healing of your outbreak and to eliminate any further
recurrences.

Symptoms
Of Herpes
Symptoms
do vary, with some people having very severe symptoms
and others having no real noticeable symptoms. Early
symptoms may include:
-
a
burning sensation in the genitals
-
lower
back pain
-
pain
when urinating
-
flu-like
symptoms
-
small
red bumps may appear in the genital area following
earlier symptoms, later developing into painful
blisters, which crust over, form a scab, and heal.
GENITAL
HERPES: THE FIRST OUTBREAK
Symptoms develop usually within 2 to 20 days after
contact, but could continue up to 2 weeks, The first
infection may be so mild it goes unnoticed, whilst in
some cases, the first attack causes visible sores.
Subsequent recurrences of the virus may cause an
outbreak of blisters. Healing of the skin does not
normally leave scarring. The virus then retreats into
the nerves and lies dormant. If you are lucky enough
to catch the virus in its early stages act as soon as
you can with an application of Dynamiclears. New
infections can be easy to combat and usually require
less application.
TYPICAL
SYMPTOMS
When it gets into skin cells the virus reproduces
itself and starts to multiply, making the skin red and
sensitive. Blisters or bumps may appear on the genital
area, the blisters first opening , and then healing
with the regeneration of new skin tissue.
The
infected area:
Other
symptoms include:
-
swollen
lymph glands
-
painful
inflamed blisters develop around infected area
-
headache
-
muscle
ache
-
fever
-
vaginal
or penis discharge
-
infection
of the urethra causing a burning sensation during
urination.
The
first episode is the most severe, with most episodes
lasting 10 - 21 days. A warning sign (prodrome) such
as tingling is experienced by many people in recurring
outbreaks.
Should
any of these symptoms occur, consult your doctor or
other health care provider immediately. Genital herpes
should be diagnosed professionally. If the condition
is confirmed to be herpes Dynamiclears should be applied
to the soonest active outbreak. Dynamiclears must be
applied when the outbreak is most active (which is
commonly when the blisters or sores have opened up and
are weeping fluid).

Herpes
Symptoms Diagnosis & Testing
Diagnosis
can sometimes be made by physical examination alone.
The doctor or health consultant will obtain fluid from
the sores and send it to a lab to see if the herpes
virus is present. Tests take up to 2 weeks for
results.
Alternatively
a blood test for herpes is available only in a few
research centers.
The
test needed is a specific virus culture or assay for
herpes virus. The test will not work if the sores have
healed.
Known
available tests:
-
Cell
Culture Test
-
Antigen
test
-
Pap
Smear
Seek
immediate professional help if genital herpes is
suspected. Some of the available diagnostic procedures
become less reliable the longer you wait. Genital
herpes should be diagnosed professionally. If the
condition is confirmed to be herpes Dynamiclears should
be applied to the soonest active outbreak.
Dynamiclears must be applied when the outbreak is most active
(which is commonly when the blisters or sores have
opened up and are weeping fluid).

Identifying
Your HSV Type
Not
everyone knows whether they have HSV-1 or 2 and in
certain situations that information could be relevant.
In a situation where both partners have HSV-2
precautions should still be made to prevent the spread
of the disease to other uninfected areas. If one
partner, however, has genital HSV-1 and the other has
HSV-2, each might get infected with a second type.
Diagnosing
genital HSV- 1 is difficult because the infection
seldom recurs. Since many people have HSV-1 orally, a
finding of HSV-1 by Western blot serology (blood test)
would not positively identify genital infection. A
Western blot confirms if you have HSV-2. If you are
seronegative (negative by blood test) for type 2, but
positive for type 1, that gives you a strong clue as
to the cause of your outbreaks (seropositive for type
1 but not type 2, with infrequent recurring genital
herpes is probably genital HSV1). Dynamiclears is
effective on both HSV1 and HSV2 infections.

Conditions
confused with Herpes
Listed
below are some other conditions sometimes mistaken for
herpes:
-
Canker
sores - (aphthous ulcers), usually occur inside
the mouth and are gray with a distinct edge, and
usually heal within 10 to 14 days without
treatment.
-
Bacterial
or yeast infections are sometimes confused with
genital herpes, but do not usually produce
blistering.
-
Impetigo
is a highly infectious bacterial disease, more
common among children often producing crusty
blisters.
-
Syphilis,
a bacterial infection, causes chancres sometimes
mistaken for blisters caused by genital herpes.
Unlike genital herpes, Syphilis does not usually
produce a cluster of blisters, and it usually
responds well to antibiotics.
-
Molluscum
contagiosum (molluscum) - like herpes, molluscum
is a viral infection of the skin. Unlike herpes,
molluscum produces lesions that are raised, with a
central dimple.

How
can herpes be prevented?
These
steps can help to reduce the risk of infection and
transmission:
-
Tell
Your Partner. It is important to understand what
herpes is; how it can be prevented; which
precautions are best; what are the social and
emotional impacts of herpes. Try to avoid any
sexual contact if you are infected (abstinence)
-
Avoid
sex during outbreaks as herpes is most contagious
during this time. Many couples have sexual
relationships for years without transmitting
herpes, just by avoiding sexual contact when
symptoms are present.
-
Use
Dynamiclears to effectively end your outbreaks
-
Limit
the number of sexual partners
-
By
having sex with a non-infected partner who has sex
only with you (mutual monogamy).
-
Use
Latex Condoms between outbreaks. Condoms offer
useful protection against herpes protecting or
covering the mucous membranes, the most likely
sites of infection.
Why
condoms and foams?
Laboratory
studies show that:
-
the
herpes virus does not pass through latex condoms
-
when
properly used latex condoms are likely to reduce
your risk of spreading or getting herpes
-
even
the best condoms do not guarantee total safety
-
when
herpes sores occur in places not covered by a
condom the condom is of little help, if any
-
condoms
and foams should not be relied upon when herpes
sores or symptoms are present
-
spermicidal
foams and jellies may offer additional protection.
Spermicides used in contraceptive foams, film and
gels kill or neutralize HSV in laboratory tests
and may provide some protection when used in the
vagina (recommended dose the same as for
contraception)
-
some
contraceptive foams contain ingredients (such as
nonoxynol-9) that kill the herpes virus and other
STD's in test tubes
-
foams
are best used along with condoms, not in place of
condoms
-
Condoms
do not provide 100 percent protection because a
lesion may be found which the condom did not
cover. Used consistently, however, condoms are the
best available form of prevention.
Avoid
contact with an open blister because of the highly
contagious nature of this virus, especially if the
blister is elsewhere on the body and not directly at a
sexual organ.
The
fingers, eyes and other body areas can be accidentally
infected by touching the sores. Preventing
self-infection is simple:
-
do
not touch the area during an outbreak
-
if
you do, wash your hands immediately
-
Use
Dynamiclears to eliminate your outbreaks
-
Women
with any sexually transmitted disease (STD) may be
at greater risk of developing cervical cancer than
other women. All women should have regular Pap
tests at least once a year as early cell changes
can be detected by Pap smears.
-
Visit
a local sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinic,
hospital, doctor or health professional.
