Here is some good news for all those needing herpes treatment. Though the disease is caused by a virus (the Herpes Simplex Viruses or HSV), and so cannot be completely eradicated ever from the system, but the symptoms of herpes can surely be removed from the body now. Medical studies conducted by Landmark University has established that products such as H-Away and its anti-viral ingredients can effectively eliminate the symptoms of both genital and oral herpes.

The herpes disease tends to come back even after the symptoms have been removed by a medicine. But there are those herbal formulas such as H-Away that can reduce recurring outbreaks as well.

Yes many factors determine what the best line of treatment should be. Such as the frequency of the attack. If this is the first time the symptoms have appeared then it is probably the worst as the virus hits the hardest the first time. It would be quite painful and effects of the virus would also be the severest on the face or the genitals. On the other hand if it a second, third or even a fourth attack, the severity of the pain and other symptoms should be less. So naturally, herpes treatment will also depend on whether it is an initial attack or a recurrent one.

Treatment also depends on frequency of the disease. For example, those in whom the virus keeps coming back need a suppressive therapy, wherein he or she will need to take the medicine on a daily basis so that the virus can be kept deactivated within the body.

Though in odd cases, even young people can get affected and need treatment, but mostly those who are infected with the virus are in the wrong side of 50. At least in them the symptoms are visible, though the virus attack might have happened earlier. And so, experts say that age is a factor. With age the power of immunity goes down and when this happens other diseases have a better chance of causing an impact. These can work as a trigger to reactivate the Herpes Simplex Viruses again causing the symptoms of herpes to erupt.

So herpes treatment also involves strengthening the immune system so that the person is able to keep the triggers at bay.

A few home solutions can go a long way to cure the illness and also aids the herpes treatment option that the person has opted for. Here are a few tips on home care…

• Never itch or tub the infected skin area, as this will almost surely make it worse.

• Use a soft towel after the bath and rinse slowly (better still, use a hair dryer to dry the skin surface).

• Always use warm water.

• Do not wear tight fitting clothes.

• Avoid public conveyance and crowded places.

• The affected areas should be clean and dry.

And lastly, do not lose hope even if it keeps coming back. Remember, there are good herpes treatment options now. So pick a proven herpes treatment and push the virus back.
