Can The Wrong Herpes Treatment Make Herpes Simplex More Painful?
Herpes treatments in general are supposed to reduce inflammation, pain, open sores, and otherwise. But with so many products on the market, all claiming to be the best, it’s hard to know which ones would actually work and which ones wouldn’t. Some of these faulty treatments can actually burn, making the pain worse or just making the pain seem worse, because they don’t actually work! IN order to find the best treatment for herpes simplex, you have to look at the ingredients.
Cold sores can manifest on any part of the body, however cold sores are most common. Most treatments dry the sore out, making it a hostile environment for the virus or bacteria. But this can be extremely painful understandably, and while most have a tendency to lick their lips, it could severely burn your tongue. So we feel that the best treatments are not drying agents as much as those that will work to actively kill bacteria or viruses without hurting the skin, drying it out, and while moisturizing in some ways and soothing, promoting greater skin cell turnover and renewing. Look for these few types of ingredients for your greater success.
