Hello,
It is quite common while treating herpes. Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself.
As of now drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
