    Hello

    The pain can stay for a while or even months!  I have had bouts since February and still get a blister or two around the same

    Place as in February,  which is my scalp!  It’s painful and sometimes itchy!  I have taken anti virals twice for these two bouts!  When this is going to be over?  I don’t know and I guess no one really knows!  Some people get it once and their done,  but others like me keep getting it!  There are people here who have suffered for years!  They have been taking meds like anti virals and still they get bouts!  So my friend we are in the same boat!  We have to visit our doctors and follow what they say and always have anti virals on hand so to start on them every time there is a recurrence!

    But cold compressors for pain and itch!  I hope that one day they will be gone forever!  

    Blessings
