Quick, get to the doctor's for a swab!

Remember though that ever since the low positive result you have been looking pretty hard for things.

There is no real need for antivirals, if this is herpes you body will stop it in its tracks pretty soon. You can try a topical cream with acyclovir, but that's more for the cream than the antiviral!

The best thing you can apply is a layer of silicon cream that is used to apply to scars. This soothes and keeps the body's natural healing moisture, collagen etc. in place on the sore promoting healing.

There are some products that are really effective at healing and cancelling an outbreak.

Home remedies - Aloe vera gel, applying a wet earl grey (black tea) tea bag on the area (bitter tanins clear the inflammation and help heal the sore), can get a lemon balm tea bag and do the same...  Some people

- Super Lysine Plus Cold Sore Ointment from Quantum (~$4-8) (get it at Walmart, CVS, Walgreens in the lip balm area).   herpes is herpes, oral or genital.  This herbal ointment is nice to enhance healing.

- something that waaaaay stronger is Lemon Balm Salve by WiseWays Herbals ($10 online) so effective.  If I get a sore, this is what I apply and it knocks it out.

- Lysine Extra from Vitanica (~$15 online) - this is a powerful herbal formula that internally will stop an outbreak and enhance the healing like you wouldn't believe.

Sanguine108, I ordered the Lysine Extra from Vitanic.  How much do you recommend taking per day?  During outbreaks?  I notice that 2 tablets are only 800mg. Should I take more than 2 per day?  I was taking 1,000 mg previously.  Thanks EM

      Hey @JS.245 and welcome to the website. The pictures aren’t that suggestive of herpes. Hard to tell from the pics what’s going on, but that could be a number of things. Are the larger bump bubble things persistent? What you have in the pics is hence independent of your herpes status.  The test results are inclusive - most people test over 5 if they are infected.  Do you have a history of oral cold sores?

      Hey, just got a STD test a while ago after noticing these showing up at the base of my penis, but its been about 5 months since I was with someone and now these are showing up. It doesn't hurt nor do I have any other symptom that I know of. I'm trying to see what's up before I go to the doctors because I don't have insurance and I'm very anxious about the situation. the std test was expensive as is.

      Just another set of supporting articles to a potential release date in 2024 giving hope to sufferers whom the standard of care is currently worthless: Promising Progress in clinical trials for Pritelivir (herpescureadvocacy.com) HSV Treatment Readies for Approval — Precision Vaccinations News

      I have not found a cheaper source for Amenalief, and I've searched high and low. I have a thread called "Pritelivir at Last" you may want to follow as I have a strong belief that It may be available to the public in the summer of 2024 and as I find new info, I update the thread immediately. Now, may I suggest a combination of drugs that several others on this forum have found to be very effective over acyclovir alone? Myself and others have found that taking 40mg of omeprazole (Tagamet @dissolvedo2 ) with 1 gram of Valacyclovir in the morning and 1 gram of Valacyclovir in the evening alone for 3 days have had profound effectiveness at stopping outbreaks in their tracks. I'd like to remind you that I am not a doctor and at best I am personal researcher for what works for me. I @lw@ys share my findings with the forum in the hopes to help others alleviate their suffering. There is another drug combo that I have tried myself as well as others on this forum have tried and that I personally feel is a much more effective for myself. This combo is 1 gram of activated charcoal with 1-gram of valacyclovir in the morning followed by 1 gram of valacyclovir in the evening alone, again for 3 days. I have found that this has reduced my outbreaks to almost only once a year and they are mild at worse. Again, just a reminder that this works for me and may not work for you but I always feel that i have to share this with anyone that cannot get this virus under control so I hope my findings can help those of you who cannot achieve relief with the standard treatment alone. The stronger anti-virals come with risks and if I can help anyone avoid those risks then by all means I feel I have done some good in this world. I only ask that you let me know if either of these suggestions work for you so that I can document it in my notes. Good luck my friend!
