Genital Herpes Treatment

Most commonly, you’ll get blisters on and around the genitals and surrounding areas if you have genital herpes. These blisters are often itchy, and they may burst and leak a clear fluid.

Blisters can also occur in other affected areas at the same time, like on the lips and in the mouth. Sometimes the infected area may itch or tingle for a couple of days before the blisters form, and this can serve as a warning that an outbreak is coming. Once the blisters have formed, they can be itchy, painful, and the surrounding area can swell.

The first outbreak is often the worst, and it can also be accompanied by a fever, swollen glands, muscle pain, and headaches. Any subsequent outbreaks are usually less severe with these other symptoms less likely to accompany the blisters.

Genital herpes is usually transmitted by skin-to-skin contact. When a person has an outbreak, the virus comes to the surface and lives on the skin on and around the blisters, as well as in the fluid they leak. If someone touches an infected area, the virus can be passed to their skin, and it can infect them by getting into their body. Genital herpes is most often transmitted by vaginal, anal, and oral sex, or when fingers touch an infected area and then another person.

Herpes simplex viruses can also be found in the bodily fluids of infected people, including their semen, meaning genital herpes can be passed to a sexual partner even when the blisters aren’t present.

Genital herpes isn’t normally passed by touching objects an infected person has used, such as sharing a towel or sitting on a toilet seat, as the virus dies quickly when away from the body. It can be passed by sharing sex toys with a partner though.

Yes. A cold sore is a blister on someone’s mouth or lips caused by oral herpes. A herpes infection can be passed to a partner if someone with cold sores performs oral sex on them.

The virus can also be passed by touching cold sores and then touching genitals, so care must also be taken to wash your hands often with antibacterial handwash if you spend time with someone with cold sores, or if you have them yourself.

Outbreaks of genital herpes usually last from between two to four weeks. Less severe outbreaks, with only a few small blisters may heal in less than a week, while more severe outbreaks can take longer than four weeks to clear. The first outbreak is usually the worst. As time passes they tend to become less frequent and less severe.

Unfortunately, there is no cure for genital herpes. Once the virus infects your body, it’s a part of you. Because the virus goes dormant for long periods inside the nerve cells in your skin, it effectively hides from both your immune system and medication. When the virus reactivates and spreads through your skin cells, your body and any medication you take will fight the infection, but even after the outbreak has been cleared up the virus will remain in your nerve cells.

Valtrex is an antiviral medication used to manage outbreaks of herpes. Its active ingredient is valaciclovir. It’s usually swallowed as a pill and it works by stopping the virus from copying itself, slowing its spread through the skin cells and helping the immune system to clear the infection faster. It can be taken daily to help prevent outbreaks from occurring.
