I wonder if I put gauze or bandages over them will that help with the rubbing, so they can heal how they should. I’ve just been thinking of everything to help the healing process. I’m so over this outbreak. Lol

@Flowerteacher55 Thank you so much for the info & humor. I’m just ready for this too be over. It’s definitely the worst of the 2 I’ve had.

@Flowerteacher55 Thank you so much for the response. It’s both. I don’t know if it’s because they are on my butt & inner thighs. I have a desk job so I’m sitting down for hours & I’m a thick girl so my thighs rub together. I’m not sure if that has anything to do with why they take so long to heal. I haven’t noticed anything that makes them worse. I’m going to speak with my doctor about trying a different antiviral. How often should I use the Lysine cream?

Hello, I take Valtrex, but I don’t want to take it daily anymore. I honestly don’t know if it’s truly working for me. My outbreaks last a long time (up to 2 months). I’m looking for natural or alternate ways to lessen outbreaks and speed up the healing process when one does come along. I’m open to any tips that has worked for others. Thanks in advance!

Hello! I was diagnosed with HSV2 in May 2021. I contracted the virus in November 2020. I’m currently experiencing my second outbreak & it is such a pain. It’s actually worse than the first one. I just don’t know what to do. It was healing slowly, but then my cycle came & it got bad again. I just don’t know what to do to help clear it up. I’m so tired & it’s frustrating. I’m trying not to stress over because I know that doesn’t help. Any tips or suggestions to help with healing?
