Yes: Unfortunately, genital herpes is incurable. The virus lives in the nerve cells throughout the body. Any kind of physical trauma can cause the lesions to appear. There are various oral antiviral medications your dr can prescribe to reduce how frequently the lesions appear. These can be taken daily or just when you have an outbreak. Check with your dr in person. Make sure you always wear a condom.
