2nd day on acyclovir not seeing much improvement yet
For me it was a bit different, cuz my doctor said that there is no point of
having medication cuz it just get rid of the symptoms and its gonna come back, so what i did was i got something for washing it had a higher ph and also u can look for some creams.
I also used some herbs, u just boil them up and then with the water u sort of like " wash the place ". My outbreak was gone in less than a week and i never had since then and this was one year ago. So my advice is dont stress out cuz this causes an outbreak, clean the place with proper stuff. Dont use too much drugs cuz it wont work. Read more about how u can get rid of it more naturally, i know there are stupid websites saying " u can get rid of it forever "
thats not true ... u need someting to calm it down. And actually being not stressed it helps a lot!
Good advice what did you get for washing it? Anything can recommend?
just becarefull cuz its strong ph Use it when neccessery, and noe cuz we have hsv2 sometimes u may get yeast infections it is also good for that. I m not sure that it is cuz of the hsv i am just guessing .... the cream the doctor prescribed me was something very strong and i dont remember the name but it was for something else and it helped. But my breakouts started getting better before everything i guess when they told me what i have I panicked and than realise that its not deadly its just .... skin condition sort of. I even went to dermatologist who also was good with STDs and she was like " i can burn them and they will
never appear" nonono burning its too much.... and they will appear

Jezzy,
Unless you started taking meds q in 24hrs of symptoms and not when full blown sores came out, meds don't do much to control tje primary. The recurrenes it seems to help.
Soaking in Epsom salt baths as often as possible. Cold packs wrapped in paper towels when lying down on your sides. 800mlgs of motrin every 4hrs. Heavy coating of Vaseline to cover when using the bathroom, to provide a protectant cover over sores.
Oh great so just gotta ride it out then, cool I just ordered some salts now should be here next week
I've just been having warm soap less baths
Those will help too, but I'd recommend not waiting and go get that now from a drug store..
Unfortunately, it is kind of just riding it out. I feel that we should be prescribed pain pills for herpes, because it is so painful during the primary ob
Umm.... W all due respect, i question the validity of this posted and her info. No doctors would ever recommend burning herpes sores off. You burn warts off, not herpes sores.
Jezzy, I suggest that you be very careful w the advice she is giving you. I do not agree w any of it.
Yeah I'm not gonna be doing that
