HSV result @ 88 days

Hello, I would like to understand the conclusive for HSV I and II test during 88 days.

Herpes Simple type 1 - 0.17
Herpes Simple type 2 - 0.42

Result benchmark:
Negative lower than 0.90
Equivocal 0.91-0.99
Positive more than 1.00

Now is 114 days, should i retest it or move on? Thanks!

at this point I'd stop applying anything to it for a few weeks and see if it looks better.

Thanks Grace!
I got some redness, wrinkled and tiny red spot on my glans and inner foreskin.
Some peeling from glans as well. I am not sure whether it is due to over dosage of steroid cream.

And i understand the side effect of steroid cream could cause these problems (eg. stretch mark, skin thinning, wrinkling).

Do you think that should i visit a doctor for this? Or just apply any aloe vera gel on it?

Sorry for too may questions, just want to clear my mind. Appreciate and thanks!
