You have to go to the doctor.  There is no way over the counter to treat it, and you can only treat it there is unfortunately no cure  :(  Your doc will prescribe you some Valtrex, it usually takes less than a week to feel some relief (they may also give you Zovirax cream which speeds up relief).  If it is extremely painful you can also ask for some lidocaine, which is a topical numbing agent which will make it easier/less painful to go to the bathroom.

I recommend Cryosurgery as it worked for me!   \n\n"Treatments that may be prescribed by a medical professional include:\n\nImiquimod, a topical cream that helps the body's immune system fight the wart virus by encouraging interferon production \n\nCandida injections at the site of the wart, which also stimulate the body's immune system\n \nCryosurgery, which involves freezing the wart, after which the wart and surrounding dead skin falls off by itself. \n\nCryosurgery followed by surgically removing the infected spot. \n\nTreatment with chemical compounds, containing salicylic acid, blistering agents, immune system modifiers, or Formaldehyde \n\nLaser treatment \n\nNone of these treatments are very effective on single uses; the wart often returns after the skin has healed from the treatment, but repeated treatment should get rid of the wart permanently. As they disappear after a few months and maximally a few years, treatment is necessary only if the lesions are painful or are a cosmetic problem."

You need prescription medicine. There are three kinds of oral medication and one kind of ointment to treat herpes. \n\nHerpes outbreaks can go away on their own, but it can take time, a LONG time. It can take months to go away on it's own. The best thing you can do is get a prescription. Just go to the doctor and get a prescription and get the generic kind which is less expensive. \n\nYou don't need to take the medicine every day, just when you are having an outbreak. I don't take the medicine everyday, just when I feel I'm going to have an outbreak or I am having one. The medicine is too expensive to take everyday, and it makes me nauseous.

1. Herpes is spread by direct skin to skin contact. Unlike a flu virus that you can get through the air, herpes spreads by direct contact, that is, directly from the site of infection to the site of contact. For example, if you have a cold sore and kiss someone, you can transfer the virus to their mouth. Similarly, if you have active genital herpes and have vaginal or anal intercourse, you can give your partner genital herpes. Finally, if you have a cold sore and put your mouth on your partners genitals (oral sex), you can give your partner genital herpes. \n\n2.Although there is no cure for herpes, some drugs have been effective in reducing the frequency and duration of outbreaks. It might be a good idea to discuss options with your doctor. \n\nDuring an outbreak, keep the infected area as clean and dry as possible. This will help your natural healing processes. Some doctors recommend warm showers in order to cleanse the infected area. Afterwards, towel dry gently, or dry the area with a hair dryer on a low or cool setting. To prevent chaffing, some people also find it helpful to avoid tight-fitting undergarments. Most creams and lotions do no good and may even irritate. \n\nFinally, a healthy immune system may be important in controlling the virus. Don't ignore the need for proper nutrition, exercise, and rest.

Try Abreva and if can get a prescription of  Mupirocin Calcium 2%, combine them and in no time it'll heal. I use both every ten minutes and in 2 days and half it's better. Plus don't bite your lip it'll swell like a balloon. Drink lots of fluids and avoid salty foods ans snacks!

Clinic treatment like cryotherapy (freeze the infected area), laser and loop electrosurgical excision procedure can effetely remove genital wart\n\n"Do not cut it yourself", those virus is deep down in your skin. Removeing the skin doesn't work at all

Re: the post above...You cannot get cold sores or genital herpes from cats or dogs.  They do not carry the virus.\n\nHerpes is a big family of viral infections, including: \noral herpes/herpes simplex 1 (cold sores,) \ngenital herpes/herpes simplex 2, \nchicken pox, \nshingles, etc.\n\nThe symptoms of each are different though.  \n\nCold sores tend to be small and most commonly are found on the lips and the area around the mouth.\n\nGenital herpes tends to produce larger sores (but not always!), and can be painful.\n\nA doctor can figure out which type you have.\n\nKeep in mind, when it comes to oral sex, you can transmit cold sores to someone's genitals.  You can also transmit genital herpes to someone's mouth.\n\nThere are tons of over the counter medicines for cold sores, and many prescription medicines for genital hepres.

You can't treat herpes. You can only treat it's outbreaks.\n\nHerpes plays a neurological hide-and-seek with every drug we throw at it -- and always wins. "The virus travels the nerve pathways and nests at the bundle of nerves at the base of the spine," says Dr. Whitley.\n\nhttp://www.webmd.com/content/article/76/90090.htm

My grandfather had shingles numerous times.  Shingles is a herpes virus.  Not sure he used L-Lysine.  I have used it when I bit the inside of my cheek and I ended up with a sore in my mouth.  It does heal.\n\nHere ya go:\n\nLysine and cold sores\n\nThe herpes virus, an ancient and unwelcome human companion, comes in more than one form. Herpes simplex 1 is almost always the culprit in cold sores or fever blisters that erupt around the mouth; herpes simplex 2 is generally responsible for genital herpes. But, in fact, both forms of the virus can cause eruptions on the genitals and around the mouth. Herpes outbreaks, wherever they occur, are usually painful and unsightly, as well as contagious. Anywhere from 60 to 90% of us carry herpes simplex 1, probably as a result of childhood infection, and genital herpes is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases these days. (Perhaps 20 million people have genital herpes, and one million become infected each year.) Once you have the virus, you have it. It may lie dormant, but it doesn't go away.\n\nFortunately, there's now an effective prescription drug for herpes called acyclovir. Sold in capsule, liquid, or ointment form, it does not cure herpes in the sense that antibiotics cure bacterial infections, but it does reduce the severity of outbreaks and seems to have few if any serious side effects. And there's some evidence that long-term daily oral doses can cut down on recurrences. It's also effective against herpes zoster, the chickenpox/shingles virus. (Two similar drugs, one already approved for use against shingles, are soon to be marketed for herpes.) However, acyclovir is quite expensive and there's no generic yet, and many people wonder if there aren't other measures they can take.\n\nAbout a decade ago, before acyclovir, the amino acid lysine was regarded as a potential herpes treatment. Lysine, one of the building blocks of protein, is supplied by many foods (notably red meats, fish, and dairy products). You can certainly satisfy your needs for lysine from dietary sources. But to fight herpes, you probably need more, the theory ran.\n\nThe idea that lysine might work against herpes has some plausibility. In order to replicate, the herpes virus requires arginine, another amino acid that's common in foods and necessary to human life; but lysine is thought to interfere with the absorption of arginine in the intestine. It's a long way from this observation to a herpes cure, and most studies have been inconclusive. A small study conducted at the Baylor College of Dentistry in 1984 did show that lysine supplements-1,000 milligrams a day-helped reduce recurrences of cold sores. (Genital herpes was not part of this study.)

I live in the UK and Zovirax is a brand for coldsores (Facial - "herpes Simplex"). It is available in the UK over the counter - not usure if thats much help though!

Yes, I know that Washington University School of Medicine is presently working on a vaccine and drugs for derailing HSV-1 and HSV 2. Do I believe that Boigetica has the cure? No. That would be front page news everywhere. The scientists at that company would never have to work again.....It would be like Smallpox....BIG news, eradicated! (only to come sweeping back through)

Yes, it's a virus called herpes. They have medicine for it, forgot what it's called. You can also get them on your crotch!

You suffer till the rest of your life. There are no complete cure for most viral infections and it will stay for ever causing repeated painful blisters. Certain bacteria are becoming drug resistant and they are difficult to cure and they spread to other organs. The cost of treatment is also becoming highly expensive. \nPlease see the webpages for more details on STD.

Herpes Type One is found in 80% of the population and it cannot magically turn into Type Two.  I once shaved like you did and got a bunch of bumps that I thought were Herpes but they were just puss filled sacks that were infected due to lots of bacteria in this area.  I eventually popped them and then cleaned them with alcohol and put on polysporin.  After that I never shaved down there again.

What you really need to do is see a doctor.  Unfortunately, nothing can CURE herpes, but you CAN help yourself.  A doctor can let you know just what YOU should do... if you need to go on suppressive therapy (which studies show works quite well, half of all people who took it in a year trial were outbreak free in 6 months, a third were outbreak free for the whole year).  And if you DO think you have it, and are feeling lost, you should know that 1/5 of the American population actually has HSV (herpes), and a lot of them don't even know it.  (chances are, one of your close friends may have it). And I think it's like, 70% of the population who has ORAL herpes (cold sores).  For some reason, those are more socially acceptable in our society, even though it's ALMOST the same disease.  There are definately worse things that could happen to a person than this.  Plus, there are many studies going on as we speak, that perhaps one day WILL yield a cure to herpes... or at least even better treatments.  PLUS, studies also show that the longer you HAVE genital herpes, the less frequent the outbreaks get, and the less severe.  So, the advice I hope you follow... 1) see a doctor.  That should be the first step, if you haven't had it diagnosed, it's even possible its NOT herpes 2) Read up on it.  Learning more about an affliction can help you deal.  Good luck!

I've struggled with these. Here's what's worked: regular (twice daily for a week), long, hot sitz baths, avoidance of alcohol and greasy foods when acute symptoms present. Regular ejaculations may or may not help. What doesn't work real well for me is a long course of antibiotics. I would also try to get a chlamydia culture.  The little buggers are hard to culture, but if they do, you might have an over abundance and consider a drug intervention against them.  Good luck. Don't give up. I used to get flair ups every year or so but haven't had a bad one in several years.
