I am in the middle of my first Genital Herpes HSV-1 outbreak. I am having a lot of trouble with pain, since the sores are around my vagina and anus. Is there anything I can put on it to help it heal quicker and make the pain go away? I know they say to keep it dry but if it's dry the scabs bleed and that's just uncomfortable. Any helpful answers would be greatly appreciated!!

OK... bathe in a nice warm epsom salt bath.
Dry your genitals with a hair dryer on a cool setting.
Apply 100% aloe vera gel (it dries very quickly and actually speeds healing of the sores).
ICE PACKS WORK WONDERS!!!
Run out to a health store and pick up Lysine supplements, take about 1500mgs a day.
