Help! Nasal Herpes...
Posted: 03-07-04 02:19am

After much wondering, I went to the doctor to get checked out for oral herpes. What I didn't notice until I got home was that I also have nasal herpes, which is caused by hsv-1. How do I treat nasal herpes? Can I apply a cream that is used for oral herpes and cold sores, or should I get a different medication? Thank you!

I honestly do not know. I have never heard of nasal herpes. I would call your doctor and tell him/her that you found them in your nose also and ask what you should use to treat them.

I went to the doctor and was prescribed valtrex. I have to take it twice a day for 10 days
