Erysiples Case Study

     HSV-1 and HSV-2 look identical under the microscope, and either type can infect the mouth or genitals. Most commonly, however, HSV-1 occurs above the waist, and HSV-2 occurs below the waist. Both HSV-1 and HSV-2 live in nerve cells, usually under

The perception of pain and the emotions that control intensity differ in individuals. Since feeling pain is somewhat adaptive, when one experiences it, he or she becomes aware of an injury and tries to remove oneself from the source that caused the injury. For this reason, pain is considered neuropathic or inflammatory in nature. Thus, when pain is the outcome from the damage caused to the neurons of the peripheral and central nervous system, then that pain is neuropathic. However, if the pain signals any kind of tissue damage, then the pain is inflammatory in nature. Due to various types of pain, the interpretation of pain by neurons and the source of that pain

consists of two types; HSV1 and HSV-2, both of which infect humans and are easily

Pain effects the body through the nerves. The phenomena of pain is conveyed from a peripheral part of the person, through afferent nerves to a part of the brain, similar to sight, touch, and hearing. These signals are then interpreted by the brain as pain (Murphy, 1981). The nerve cells used to relay pain messages to the brain are specific nerve cells called nociceptors. These nerves do not send messages until "the stimulus reaches noxious levels," (McClesky, 1992).

Homeostasis regulates body temperature, for example, enzymes need to have a specific constant temperature to work at their best ability. Cells rely on enzymes to speed up chemical reactions. It also regulates the bodies water balance, which cells need to transport oxygen, dissolved food and carbon dioxide.

8. Thermoregulation is to regulate temperature. The hypothalamus sends signals to the blood vessels, muscles, and/or sweat glands to alter the temperature of the human body when needed. You should always keep your body at a steady temperature.

Herpes it looks just like cold sores and can be anywhere one the body. And if

It is reported that the herpes virus is more easily transmitted from male to female than from female to male. It is reported that approximately one out of every five women between the ages of 14 to 49 years of age have the herpes virus and one out of nine men between the ages of 14 and 49 years of age have the herpes virus. The majority of individuals infected with NSV-1 or HSV-2 experience few if any symptoms or their symptoms are so mild that they do not even notice them or mistakenly believe that they can be attributed to another skin problem. When symptoms are noted it is in the form of blisters that are painful around the individual's "genitals, rectum or mouth." (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2012, p.1) The blisters break and leave painful sores that may take two to four weeks to heal.

Herpes simplex 1 also known as oral herpes, it's scientific name is simplex virus. Herpes simplex 1 is a bacterial disease. Herpes simplex 1 is passed with children if the parents carry it. This type can also be carried by kissing, drinking from the same cup from a person that carries it, and any other physical contact with someone that carries it. The cause of the disease can be found on/in the mouth. HSV-1 has a few types of functions: cold sores and/or fever blisters around the mouth and on the face. HSV-1 can be spread much faster when an infected person is having an outbreak. The disease can be spread to any age group, especially if you -have a weekend immune system, having multiple sex partners, being a female, having another sexually transmitted infections- this also goes for Herpes simplex 2 (HSV-2).

In the human body the internal temperature is maintained at 37 degrees Celsius and this is maintained as a result of homeostasis. Homeostasis is the process of balancing or keeping a stable internal environment in the body. A majority of organ systems in the body contribute to homeostasis, however there are two very important organ systems that play a massive role within this process, and they are the endocrine and nervous system. Both are crucial as they permit communication in the body and the integration of cells as well as tissue functions.

Unfortunately, the virus can still be spread in the absence of symptoms. Oral herpes, evidenced by cold sores, is contagious during an outbreak and also in the days leading up to it. Those infected with the herpes virus should be careful not to pass it to others. During an outbreak, be extremely cautious not to exchange saliva with any non-affected individual, including sharing food, drinks, or

These two different systems that deal with pain are part of the limbic system. Here, the brain is able to modulate how much pain the body is going to feel. A very important component to this pain is the frontal lobectomy. It is very common in cancer patients to have this area removed and this procedure is called a lobectomy. The patients can still register the fact that they are in pain, yet the pain does not bother them in the slightest. Therefore, pain should be viewed as simply a “signal” to the brain that something is wrong, but when the signal reaches the emotional part of the brain, it is then that the body feels pain. This emotional response to pain is involved with the anterior cingulate gyrus and the right ventral prefrontal cortex.

In conclusion the skin plays an important role in the maintenance of homeostasis. It is an important barrier to infections, and diseases. The skin also plays a part in the feedback loop that regulates body temperature and synthesizes important vitamins for our

Pain is something that connects all of us. From birth to death we can identify with each other the idea and arguably the perception of it. We all know we experience it, but what is more important is how we all perceive it. It is known that there are people out there with a ‘high’ pain tolerance and there are also ones out there with a ‘low’ pain tolerance, but what is different between them? We also know that pain is an objective response to certain stimuli, there are neurons that sense and feel pain and there are nerve impulses that send these “painful” messages to the brain. What we don’t know is where the pain

Herpes Simplex Virus 1 is an infectious virus commonly referred to as "Cold Sores." As a virus it has to replicate inside one of its hosts cells because it is not a living thing and thereby, it cannot live on its own. Once one is infected with HSV 1 it stays with them for life.
