Herpes can be cured. Herpes is caused by a viral infection that is self-limiting, and some patients will recover on their own after a period of time, even without treatment. Of course, some herpes infections may have more serious complications and require active therapeutic intervention, especially in infants and children who are infected with the herpes virus. In addition to skin herpes symptoms, there may be fever, respiratory distress, damage to the liver, spleen and other organs, etc. This situation requires treatment with antiviral drugs. You can choose acyclovir or ribavirin for treatment, or you can consider using interferon or thymidine to improve the immunity of the body, and you also need to choose the symptomatic treatment method.
