Fever Blisters- cause & cure?

[Guest guest]

My son has had a bad blister on the roof of his mouth for some time.

It seems to not bother him most of the time, then he'll go through

spells where it even wakes him up at night bothering him.

In addition, this past week, he has had a blister on the outside of

his mouth- on his top lip.

Could this be viral (herpes simplex) issues clearing from his system

through SCD or possibly something he is eating (nut

butter/bananas/eggs?) or some vit/min/amino deficiency is causing

this? I thought fever blisters cropped up when your immune system is

depressed. We've been trying to get extra mid-day sun for the Vit D

in addition to his usual playing outside- could this be aggrevating

the blisters- too much sun?

Any insight or helpful ideas appreciated!

yeah thats a very insightful observation, the immuno supression from

the midday sun is letting herpes get away

avoid any direct sun on the face

its mistaken thinking to think these things " clear out " , its a simple

resurgence of a virus with immune supression

vitamin d and skin d is very much a question of trade-offs

if the vit d is too low then you get too active an immune system and

you get autoimmunity issues in the gut and brain and pancreas

also low vit d means low growth hormones and dysfunction

but high vit d supresses the anit viral immune systme in the short term

vitamin a acetate is great for bolstering anti viral immunity, mycel a

is good to

also the houstonni no fenol and hn zyme
