Herpes Simplex 2
The following is found in the EODR, 4th Edition, pages 450-451, Essential Science Publishing
HERPES SIMPLEX TYPE II
The Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2, is transmitted by sexual contact and results in sores or lesions.
- Four to seven days after contact with an infected partner, tingling, burning, or persistent itching usually heralds an outbreak
- One or two days later, small pimple like bumps appear over reddened skin. The itching and tingling continue, and the pimples turn into painful blisters, which burst, bleeding with a yellowish pus.
- Five to seven days after the first tingling scabs form, and healing begins.
Antiviral essential oils have generally been very effective in treating herpes lesions and reducing their onset.
Oils such as tea tree, melissa, and rosemary have been successfully used for this purpose by Daniel Penoel, M.D. in his clinical practice.
A study at the University of Buenos Aires found that sandalwood essential oil inhibited the replication of Herpes Simplex viruses 1 and 2.
Those with herpes should avoid diets high in the amino acid L-arginine, substituting instead L-lysine. Lysine retards the growth of the virus. Foods, such as amaranth and plain yogurt are good sources of lysine.
