Thank you so much! I figured that's what it was, and really didn't wanna make an uninsured trip to to the doctors to find out something I already know, haha. Well, that's what I get for slacking on my prevention methods. Since I have to get through this without any valtrex or anything, are there any home remedies that actually work?

So I was diagnosed with genital hsv1 about 6 months go (on my birthday not to mention). I know the second outbreak is usually less severe than the first and I am by no means complaining, but this is almost nothing compared to my first one. It's just two small barely swollen sores that are barely even open, and don't hurt or itch, I'd have to say more along the Lines of uncomfortable. My glands aren't swollen and I don't feel or look like walking death, just a little tired and headachy. Is it another outbreak or does it sound more like an irritation? (I've been rather physically active this past summer, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's from my underwear). I've been taking lysine regularly and treating it as if it was an outbreak, so maybe I'm just keeping it at a minimum because I caught it in time like is that possible?
