Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to herpes simplex virus.
I suggest using Acyclovir cream for local application.
I also suggest using Acyclovir tablets three times a day.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
