Herpes - on one side of the face
Hello Doctor,
We got to know that my mom has got herpes. Outbreak is almost over now, swelling and blisters are all reduced but she is still getting severe headaches. Also she is now getting crawling and itching sensation on all the infected areas.
She is on acyclovir medicine for almost 20days now, headaches are back if she stops taking the pill. Please suggest on the pill usage and about these sensations.
Anything can be done to relieve this pain? We have visited multiple hospitals and everywhere it's same medication. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
