Hi. Greetings. You'll need a long term aciclovir suppressive dose. Discuss this with your dermatologist Also we'll need to know the trigger for recurrent infection in you. Would suggest u use a lip balm with sunscreen in it. Avoid procedures around the lips like threading and bleaching. Hope this helps . warm regards. Dr Govind Suresh Mittal..
