If you find one or more blisters
on or around your genitals or your rectum then you may have genital
herpes. However, this is not always the case so it is important to get
checked out by a doctor. The blisters usually break and leave tender
spots (ulcers). When this first occurs, it can take up to a month for
them to heal.
Another outbreak will usually
occur within a few weeks but sometimes it can be a few months. This
second outbreak will be less severe than the first one. The genital
herpes virus generally stays in the body forever but the outbreaks become
less and less severe as time goes by. Since the virus will not go away,
it is a good idea to find the best treatment that you can so that your
life will be less miserable.
One of the most important
things to know about genital herpes is that it can be Transmitted from
one partner to the other. You can even get infected by the virus from
a partner who does not have a visible sore and may not know that he
or she is infected.
There is no treatment that
can cure herpes. However, there are certain antiviral medications that
can shorten and prevent outbreaks. There are also some natural products
that you can buy online for the treatment of genital herpes. Take a
look at the products that are listed right on this page. The best thing
to do is get some advice from your doctor.
