These medications work by not only reducing the number of outbreaks you experience each year but by also helping to make the symptoms of genital herpes more bearable. These types of medications do have some side effects that herpes patients need to watch out. Some of these medications may not be suitable for some people because of medications they already need to take or pre-existing conditions that they may have that would be affected by this form of genital herpes treatment. To find out about this particular form of genital herpes treatment you should talk with your doctor and discuss what he or she thinks and which ones they feel may be right for you.

The next form of genital herpes treatment you will see on the market includes topical creams and ointments. These are special medicated creams that you would put on the area of the outbreak to reduce the irritation. It is important to note that this form of  herpes treatment is not used very often as they are not very effective in most cases. They may provide a small amount of relief but they do not do much to prevent future breakouts or help decrease some of the other symptoms you would experience from having genital herpes. You can take pictures of genital herpes to check your recovery progress over time, or to show to your doctor for evaluation.

Doctors are working hard at coming up with more treatment options for herpes patients including shots that would provide a great deal of relief. There are special treatments in the form of a combination of vitamins that some with herpes may try but they should be careful with these. They can be bought over the counter but do not really provide a good result. For the maximum results one should talk with their doctor about what they recommend.
