Well, to be honest, just to eat up... I don't know that. Usually the opposite is true.
That is, at first the immunity sags, and then herpes comes out. But there are also some oddities that the virus itself introduces into the immune system.
Herpes lives in our nerve nodes. He is hiding there from immunity. Sometimes the virus is activated and gets out.
Herpes floats in the blood and immediately attracts the attention of the immune system. If you and I are not lucky, then this immunity will be one of the varieties of eater cells that swallow strangers.
These cells digest the virus, but leave behind a lot of scraps. Like many eater cells, they crawl out of the blood into the tissues to patrol the boundaries of our body.
And these cells crawl into the skin and regurgitate scraps of the virus there. These pieces of cold sore remain inside the skin cells.
It is believed that herpes quite purposefully drives eaters into the skin. For some reason he needs it.
Well, inside skin cells, fragments of viral DNA do not just lie around, but make skin cells attractive for immunity. Something there is chemistry with receptors on the surface of cells.
The immune system understands the anxiety and begins to attack its own skin.
People have on different parts of the body strange spotssimilar to the target. In the center there will be a bubble of fluid or a patch of dead skin on a red background, then a pale roll of swollen skin and red skin again.
This "target" is called erythema multiforme exudative. It happens for various reasons, but in 90% of cases it is from herpes.
The spots usually don't hurt, but they can itch at times.
Erythema goes away on its own. The bad news is that many people get herpes almost every week. Then such colorful manifestations can greatly complicate life.
Have you heard about such a thing?
