Hi
You can use anti viral cream and also Acyclovir tablets to reduce the severity of the disease.
Herpes infection is a viral one and it gets subsided spontaneously in course of time.The lesions will appear when your immunity is low, like in fever.
You consult your skin specialist and proceed accordingly.
Wish you speedy recovery
