What medicine is used for men's herpes

Male genital herpes is mainly treated with antiviral drugs, such as acyclovir, famciclovir, valacyclovir, ganciclovir, etc. In addition, to prevent the herpes disease from spreading and aggravating the condition, potassium permanganate solution bath or hydrogen peroxide solution can be used to soak the wound, or 2% gentian violet solution can be applied externally. Chinese herbal medicines are mainly selected to clear away heat and fire, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, clear heat and benefit dampness, such as Longdan Xiegan Pills, Chushi Weiling Decoction, Huoxue Zhitong Decoction, Danggui Luhui Pills, etc.

There are many medicines for men to choose from when they have genital herpes. Commonly used medicines in clinical medicine include interferon ointment, acyclovir cream, ganciclovir cream, etc., which have good practical effects. Oral medication can also be used for treatment. Common antiviral drugs include acyclovir tablets and interferon suppositories. Genital herpes is mainly caused by not paying attention to hygiene or contact with herpes virus caused by sexual transmission during normal sexual life. It is best not to have sex during the treatment period, because cross-infection is very easy to occur during sex. And eat light food, do not eat spicy and irritating foods. A normal history of the disease may take three to four weeks.

In clinical medicine, the most common diseases that mainly manifest as herpes are herpes simplex virus infection and varicella-zoster virus infection. Since both are caused by viruses, there is a certain similarity in treatment. For herpes simplex virus infection, acyclovir, valacyclovir or famciclovir are used, but for genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus type 2, it is easy to relapse and may need continuous use; some patients may have acyclovir resistance and need to use phosphobenzoic acid to inhibit the virus.

For herpes zoster and varicella virus infections, acyclovir and valacyclovir are usually used to cure the disease. Herpes zoster patients with severe pain can use non-steroidal analgesics. Diclofenac is a common drug in clinical medicine.
