Cold Sores: An Alien Virus

Cold Sores, Oral Herpes, Fever Blisters

Cold sores are blisters or sores on the face - normally occurring on the edge of your lip or nose.

"Cold sores" is the most common term used for these hideous, painful and contagious facial sores, however, they are also known as fever blisters or oral herpes. The root cause of all cold sores is an infection of either herpes simplex virus type 1 or type 2. About 83% of cold sores are caused by herpes type 1. Cold sores can also be caused by what is commonly responsible for genital cold sores - herpes simplex virus type 2. Type 2 is responsible for about 17% of cold sores.

Cold sores are "location specific", occurring in roughly the same place each time. The cold sores virus is normally latent, or asleep, in the nerve ganglia cells located behind the jaw near the brain stem on the same side of your face as your cold sores occur. The cold sores virus does not normally travel internally to infect other locations - but stays put in the area where your cold sores were first contracted. I have seen rare exceptions to this where the cold sores virus has spread to other areas within the body. My opinion on this is that the internal spreading of the cold sores virus did not come from a current cold sores infection but came from either a re-infection from someone else, or a mutated form of the cold sores virus version.

This herpes simplex virus spreading throughout your body is rare, but it can happen and it can be a life/death situation. Don't mean to alarm you but you have a right to know, and no one else I've seen is telling good people like you about it.

To avoid this possible internal spreading of the herpes simplex virus, you must cure each oral herpes outbreak as quickly as possible. The longer cold sores linger on your lip, the more new herpes simplex virus is being created, and the greater the risk for mutation and spreading.

I have several cold sore remedies that work well for curing cold sores, which I'll talk about in the future, but they require you to order the ingredients from several different companies and mix the recipe properly. This takes time for the products to arrive and costs you money.

There is one of my favorite cold sore remedies that I've seen work extremely well and you could be using in about 10 minutes from now. It heals cold sores so fast you honestly won't believe it. I'm talking maybe only 2 to 3 days tops. You probably don't need to buy a darned thing because most people have this in their home already. If buy rare chance you don't have this cold sore remedy in your home, you can get it anywhere for about $3.00 for a lifetime supply. No kidding. You honestly can't go wrong.

The remedy is available in a special report that can be downloaded in a minute and will cost you a little, but it will likely be the last money you'll ever spend on cold sores.
