Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Please find answers to your queries below.

(i) What kind of influence does meth have on herpes?

Meth by itself has no influence of herpes but due to meth use an individual can lose inhibitions and have risky sexual behavior and transmit or acquire herpes infections.

(ii) Can it cause an outbreak?

The outcome of herpes infection varies with the individual. While in most it will remain dormant even after the person is infected, there are patients who will have an outbreak. This can be in form of blisters which burn and are painful.

(iii) And if u get oral pleasure from some one and u have herpes , if they kiss u in the face ... can u then break out all over your face from it?

After having oral pleasure there can be transmission of oral or genital herpes and this can lead to eruptions on your face or genital organs depending on type of infection and immunity of the person infected. The blisters are usually spread along areas supplied by a single nerve and this can be the face or chest.

(iv) Is there a cure for herpes or home remedy?

There is no home remedy cure for herpes but once blisters appear, this can be controlled by taking antiviral medications like acyclovir or valacyclovir at prescribed doses for a few days.
