Help! I'm still new to this

Does anyone else have extreme itching all over their body after an OB?  Also I'm wondering if anyone has any tips if you feel an OB coming around the mouth area?  And lastly how soon should I wait to have sex after an OB heals?  My apologies for all the questions but I'm just getting over my first HORRIBLE OB.  ANY tips will help,  I was diagnosed with HSV1&2 about 3 years ago and am on Acyclovir.

If you feel an OB coming around the mouth area, should eat more lysine foods, avoid stress and apply honey or OTC creams as soon as possible. For the question about sex after a OB, you should wait until your OB is healed completely, time depends on your body, as long as you feel free, sex is okay, but remeber to wear condoms every time you've sex. Acyclovir is the common antiviral med for herpes, but I don't take this med. I applied Prosurx through people's suggestions, it helped me treat herpes well and control further OB

Thank you so much for your reply!  I applied some garlic and rubbed a little coconut oil on the spot it was tingling & so far it's stopped. I'm not felling confident enough to have sex just yet,  there's no sores but pink dry spots. Is the medication you use prescribed?  Sorry for all the questions,  I'm still in the scared of every tingle & itch stage lol.  I feel so alone and scared since the OB.

Don't panic. OB will be less severe over time. Also, the frequency of OB can be reduced by time. It's great when you apply remedies for the first satge of an OB, this helps prevent the infection from severity.  Keeping stress and scare at bay is an important way to control further OB. The medication I used isn't prescribed, I bought it on its mian website

Thank you so much,  I've started taking my anxiety medication since the OB,  hopefully it helps me stress less. Appreciate you🙏🏾

I'm feeling much better but now my tongue is burning omg ,what is happening to me😫 It's still EXTREMELY itchy down below on my ladybits still so now I'm wondering if it's just healing itch or another OB coming. This shit is stressful

Hows the tongue?

Hey hey!  It's much better, thank you for asking.  I had a little cut like lesion under that only lasted a day & a half thanks to my antiviral meds,  garlic and coconut oil.  I'm SOOOOOO paranoid at every little itch or sting in the genital and mouth area after this last outbreak.  Now I know what I thought were cuts were actually breakouts.  This last one actually produced sores that hurt like hell man.  I'm now training myself to know my triggers & stop the OB at the pass.  Garlic and coconut oil have helped tremendously.

I'm having tongue issues. Did the garlic help your tongue? need advice with tongue herpes.

Honestly I feel like it helped me accompanied with the coconut oil.

Jajoba oil with a few drops of peppermint oil sure helps me with the vaginal itching!  Try it!  Where do I get the prosurx?  I’ve been looking.  Amazon says it is out
