    There is no cure. It's herpes.

    Just find another mate with herpes. Because you cant give herpes, herpes.

      There is NO CURE for herpes cold sores or genital. On the ONLY bright side, Thank The Good Lord above you didnt get shingles instead. Shingles is pretty much like having herpes blisters over half of your body. A buddy of mine had Shingles and a real bad breakout, then he died in a car accident. R.I.P. Steve - We Miss You

      But I watched him hurt for a week, I could almost feel the pain he felt. I saw it in his face.

    And I've never tried acyclovir... Does it really work? Will my herpes get used to it and become stronger, bigger, and more frequent??

    • compeed patches ive not used them but they look good, the acyclovir doesnt make cold sores get bigger over time in fact they get smaller. ask yr pharmacist

    Some people use ice cubes. Ten or fifteen minutes every few hours is supposed to reduce how bad the sore gets and also stops you getting them in the same place in the future.
