Rash from Herpes HSV Virus - It can start from the Cold Sore on the Lip

Having the HSV virus not only results in cold sores but can also lead to a rash on your body as well. This is another good reason to gain control over the cold sore issue.
It is frustrating to have the herpes cold sore on the lip due to the length it takes to resolve and the fact that the fever blister on the lip is so noticeable. But for some, it gets more complicated. There is a herpes rash that some develop on their bodies,which consist of red lesions with grey or white centers. The technical name for this rash is erythema multiforme minor.

Erythema multiforme minor is can also be caused by walking pneumonia or another infection, but the hsv virus (herpes virus) is the main reason people get erythema multiforme minor. For many, the rash is itchy and can make sleep difficult without taking an antihistamine such as benadryl.

The rash symptoms can be mitigated by taking oatmeal baths, using anti-inflammatory herbs and meds as well as aloe vera.

What is important is to stop the cycle of the outbreaks of the hsv virus and l-lysine is very helpful for this. Keeping your immune system strong is important and this includes getting rest, eating well and finding ways to reduce stress in your life.

A system is important in addition to taking l-lysine to control the outbreaks of the herpes cold sore on the lip. This will give you relief from both the fever blister as well as herpes rash that may develop on your body.
