A member asked:
If i have contracted herpes from oral sex(hsv1) on my genitals, will it be better managable than hsv2 or it will cause the same outbrakes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genital HSV-1: Is generally less bothersome than hsv-2. You can always get on an antiviral such as valacyclover to reduce number and duration of outbreaks as well as decreasing the risk of spreading it. Over time the outbreak frequency should decrease. Good luck.
