Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Dear Gentian violet I % but unfortunately this is an inelegant preparation which obscures the progress of the lesions. Better to use anti viral drugs like acyclovir or Gancyclovir. Which are useful systemically or topically to cure problem.

Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you.
Take care.
