Herpes sores not healing

[Newtothis]

I’m in the midst of my first outbreak and noticed the blisters about 6 days ago they have all now burst but because they are on the inside of my labia and seem to ooze a lot, they don’t seem to be healing! Does anyone have any advice on how to help this?? I’m on antivirals and bathing twice a day but just want them to heal.

I believe they will heal with time

Hi Newtothis. I’m new to being diagnosed as well. Not new to the breakouts though. (Was misdiagnosed as a severe allergic reaction.)

They will heal and it appears that you are on track with the steps toward healing. I’m in the middle of an outbreak now and am right about at the stage you are.

In my past experience, after it drains you will see it begin to heal, and I typically end up with just a painless red mark where the sore was. This too goes away and when I reach that stage I’m feeling great and feel like it’s ending.

For me from start to the red mark going away takes approximately two weeks. If you follow a similar pattern, you should see some changes for the positive soon.

So about day 6 is when your burst? I’m on dah 4 and today has by far been the worst day of my life. I can’t wait for this to be over.

I’ve noticed my sores heal faster drinking ginger tea. I cut up ginger root and boil it in water and then add lemon and honey so that it is easier to drink. I prefer ginger but you could probably also take it in supplement form.
