Why Look for Home Treatment for Herpes?

Because of the embarrassment, many people prefer not to say their problems even to a physician. If you are one of them, you should know that it’s perfectly normal; however, you should gather your courage to share it with someone, especially a professional. As initial management, you can try the following home treatment for herpes.

Home-made Herpes Treatment

1. Ice
If you have a refrigerator at home, then you most probably have ice. Its coldness helps herpes patients in 2 ways: it numbs the area where it is applied causing a more soothing feeling; and it lowers down the temperature of the sore slowing down the activities of the herpes virus. Don’t forget to wrap it in a piece of cloth or towel before applying.
2. Baking soda
Baking soda is common in many homes because it is used for different things. It is good for relieving itching as well as helping to dry out the sores. Simply wet a cotton ball, dip it on baking soda powder and apply to the affected area. Do not re-dip to avoid contaminating the unused baking soda.
3. Milk
Milk is another great home treatment for herpes which is available in grocery stores and anyone can get a carton or gallon at a cheap price. Use a cotton ball dipped in milk to apply to the sores. Milk helps promote healing of the skin lesions as well as relieves pain.

Other Herpes Treatments

More Tips to Help Genital Herpes Treatment

• Wear loose pants and underwear. This prevents heat and moisture from building up in the affected area thus promoting healing. I’m sure you would also prefer your skin to be able to “breathe”, right?
• Avoid using bath tubs. I know the feeling of soaking in the tub is different from just having a regular bath but it does not help in preventing the spread of the virus.
• Drink plenty of fluids. Besides helping the skin to heal, it also dilutes the urine to lessen the pain when voiding.
