The treatment of Herpes genitals is Tablet Acyclovir 400mg three times in a day for 7 days.Topical fusidic acid can also be used along with it to reduce the chances of secondary infection. Oral antihistamines like fexofenadine may also be used for itching. You can have intercoarse after all lesions have dried up completely. However you must always keep in mind that there is a chance of recurrent lesions. Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy. Regards
