doctor prescibed zoviraz.. just not sure if i have hsv2 yet

so i have this thing down there.. not painful, but it is noticeable.. its right at my right vaginal opening.. and is kind of red.. anyway.. im in the process of waiting for my test results to come back for hsv 1 and 2 using the igG and the igM test.. in the mean time, my doc prescribed me a cream.. i just wanted to know that, if the cream does'nt work, will that mean i don't have herpes? and also, how long does it take to start to feel results. or see results.

zovirax ointment is useless for herpes recurrences :(  Your provider pretty much wasted your time and money.

waiting for your igg results is hard but at this point it's the best you can do.

it's really helpful when you just keep adding to your original post instead of making a new post each time. this is explained in our read before posting post on this forum. thank you for your future cooperation with this. Just continue to add to this point from this point forward - thanks!
