There is no treatment that can cure herpes, but antiviral
medications can shorten and prevent outbreaks during the period of
time the person takes the medication. In addition, daily
suppressive therapy for symptomatic herpes can reduce transmission
to partners.

A cure for herpes has not yet been developed. Once infected, the
virus remains in the body for life. However, after several years,
some people will become perpetually asymptomatic and will no longer
experience outbreaks, though they may still be contagious to
others. Treatments with antivirals can reduce viral shedding
and alleviate the severity of symptomatic episodes. Vaccines are in
clinical trials but have not
demonstrated effectiveness. It should not be confused with
conditions caused by other viruses in the herpesviridae family such as
herpes zoster, which is caused by
varicella zoster virus. The
differential diagnosis includes hand, foot and mouth disease due to
similar lesions on the skin.
Often it's hard to tell by looking. The textbook symptom of
genital herpes is a cluster of small fluid-filled blisters that
break, forming painful sores that crust and heal during several
days. Affected areas include the penis, scrotum, vagina, vulva,
urethra, anus, thighs, and buttocks.
But many people don't get these sores. Some people have no
symptoms at all, while others get symptoms that can be easily
mistaken for razor burn, pimples, bug bites, jock itch,
hemorrhoids, an ingrown hair, or a vaginal yeast infection.
After you're infected, the symptoms go away, but can flare up
from time to time. Luckily, the first outbreak usually is the
worst. And some people may have just one or two outbreaks in their
lifetime.
