Happened to contact Dermatologist and has been Rx Nervigin-P caps. Is this medication alone is enough or any other medications required (as no antiviral has been Rx, Please suggest. Also Dr, Its been now three weeks & it was seen near hip, thighs,lower back of body. She has consulted a dermatologist but as I have mentioned may be it was late/delayed and was advised only Nervigin-P caps, What would you recommend for due course of treatment.{ also what precautions, care need to be taken to reduce pain ).Thanks.
