A member asked:
What to do when antivirals taken over long period of time seem to have no effect on herpes ulcers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Behçet's Disease: Behçet's disease has a high degree of resemblance to diseases that cause mucocutaneous lesions such as herpes simplex labialis. If you have chronic ulcerations that do not respond to anti-viral medications, have your doc reevaluate your ulcers. Take care.
