shouldn't a topical be prescribed to prevent area from spreading or help transferring virus to a partner?
just take the pills - that is what is helping you the most.
if you want something to help with pain control, try dermaplast spray ( the blue can, not the red can for the genital area ). It's a spray on anesthetic that you spay on when it hurts to help it hurt less.
I usually get prescribed the pills and the cream/ointment.This i was told helps to hasten the healing.Shouldn't using both oral in conjuction with topical meds speed up the healing process.Thanks.

You should use the pill form as the cream is not as effective.
Thanks for ur comments Grace.But are u syaing that tablets should be prescribed or are u saying there are other topical meds that are more effective.
topical acyclovir is ineffective for genital herpes recurrences. it should never be prescribed because it basically wastes your money. Your provider needs to update their prescribing information and stop prescribing it to their patients.
