HSV1 On Genitals, Lesion On Gland, No Discharge Or Pain. Any Mediation ?
Hi there. I m 20 years old and just recently has found that I have hsv1. I have it on my genitals as well or so I think. I ve had a lesion on my gland for, I d say, 5 or 6 months now and it is just whitish/grey in the middle. No discharge , no pain, just a small little hole. Im not sure if there is any kind of medicine to help with it, but please help me. It s been stressful at the least. Thanks.

Hi ,
Thanks for writing in.
You can have herpes genitalis ,chancroid, granuloma inguinale.
You should apply antibiotic like fusidic acid on the genital.
Oral drugs like acyclovir and valacyclovir are helpful for herpes.
Please visit a good dermatologist or physician for proper examination and treatment with prescription drugs for STDs.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
