How to treat herpes virus? 3 methods to help you stay away from illness

Herpes is a highly contagious skin disease, mostly caused by herpes virus infection. Therefore, if you want to cure herpes, you must eliminate the herpes virus. So for the herpes virus, how can you achieve the best treatment effect? Here are three best ways to treat herpes virus!

(I) Traditional Chinese medicine suppression therapy

Currently the most effective treatment method: Genital herpes is a stubborn disease that is difficult to cure, and traditional medicines have been helpless against genital herpes. Topical products are rich in highly active protein-dissolving enzymes that can quickly dissolve the protein shell of the herpes virus, allowing the drug ingredients to quickly enter the virus and destroy the gene chain. Inhibit the DNA polymerase activity of the virus, making it unable to reproduce and kill off offspring.

2. Antiviral drug treatment

1. Acyclovir (ACV) is an open-chain purine nucleoside that can inhibit viral deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis, but has little effect on host cell DNA synthesis. Herpes is considered the most effective anti-HSV drug currently available. For severe cases, the drug can be administered intravenously at a dose of 5 mg per kilogram of body weight, once every 8 hours for 5 to 7 days. Generally, patients can take it orally, 200 mg each time, 5 times a day, or 800 mg each time, 2 times a day, for a total of 5 to 7 days. It can quickly reduce the virus, alleviate symptoms and shorten the healing time. Topical application of 3% to 5% ACV ointment can also relieve symptoms and shorten the course of the disease. The drug has no obvious side effects.

For patients with more frequent relapses, Bolikang can be used for prevention. The method is to take 200 mg each time, 3 times a day, for 6 to 12 months. Some patients can completely suppress recurrence. In recent years, new analogs of acyclovir have been developed, such as valaciclovir, famiciclovir, paolikang, etc., which have the advantages of definite efficacy, high bioavailability, small dosage, long half-life, and less medication frequency. They have been reported to be used for the treatment of genital herpes.

2. Bolikang is a guanine nucleoside analog that has anti-DNA and RNA virus effects. Use it daily for 10 days to relieve pain and shorten the course of the disease.

3. Vaccines and immunosuppressants: For patients with severe primary genital herpes and recurrent attacks, non-specific vaccines such as BCG and polio vaccine can be tried to enhance the body's non-specific immunity, but their effectiveness is not very reliable and should be used with caution in patients with immunosuppression and immunodeficiency.

4. Immunoenhancers: Immunoenhancers can be used for patients with recurrent genital herpes to improve the body's immune regulation function. For example, levamisole, 50 mg each time, 3 times a day, take it for 3 consecutive days and then stop for 11 days, that is, take it for 3 days every 2 weeks. You can also use levamisole ointment, apply it to the flexor side of the forearm, once a day for 3 consecutive days. Take the medicine 3 days a week.

3. Physical therapy

Many patients need to endure pain during treatment. If steam bath therapy is used during treatment, the medicine can be absorbed by the patient's skin, which can achieve good therapeutic effects in the shortest time and effectively alleviate the patient's symptoms.
