Hello, Thanks for your query on Lybrate "As" per your clinical history is concerned it is normal so try to eat light foods during this time and discuss with your Doctor about an antiviral course like [valacyclovir]. Some diet suggestions - 1) Increase the intake of fresh fruit juices to keep you hydrated and to improve immunity. 2) Try to avoid processed and fatty junk food and consume large amounts of fresh vegetables and fruits, Foods that are difficult to digest should be avoided such as red meat, spicy and fried foods. 3) Try to Include foods high in vitamin A and C, zinc, magnesium, and calcium to boost immunity and increase stamina.
