Hi I have been diagnosed with genital herpes. I consulted a gynaecologist and a dermatologist. So they have given me Acivir 800 3 times a day for 7 days and lucidin creme to apply at the affected area and a pain killer. It?s my second day now but the pain is not subsiding and swelling in labia is a lot and it?s very painful. I can?t sleep at night since 3 days please suggest how to decrease the pain and wetness down there. It?s killing me.
