Mask is goin strong
I got diagnosed with herpes 3 days ago.

I'm 19, and got diagnosed in early July. I generally love living...

07/22/08

i used this fungal treatment cream called 'Tinaderm' on my affected areas yesterday. it stung at first but later on that night i felt decidedly more at ease. now my outbreak had just advanced to the 'open sore' stage when i used it, so i dont know if this stage brings more comfort than the blisters [i'm on my very first gential herpes outbreak].

 

also, how long after the open sore stage does it start to crust over exactly? i cant wait to be able to walk normally again :'(
