Can genital herpes be cured completely?

Genital herpes is generally not completely curable and is prone to recurrence, but standardized treatment can help symptoms improve. Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the herpes simplex virus. When genital herpes first occurs, after treatment, the symptoms will improve and the lesions will fade easily, but it is easy to recur, especially within 1 year after the initial infection. Medication is often taken to reduce symptoms and shorten the course of the disease. Genital herpes can be treated locally with antiviral therapy such as acyclovir ointment and penciclovir cream, and mupirocin cream can also be used to prevent secondary bacterial infections. During the treatment period, you need to pay attention to personal hygiene and improve your immune system through proper diet and exercise to prevent recurrence of the disease due to low immunity.
