[quote=Anonymous]I started getting them at around that age and I remember how hard that was. Valtrex or some generic equivalent may help, but you have to start taking them as soon as you feel that first tingle, so it may take your daughter a while to identify that feeling. The drugs, along with Abreva and Tylenol, help me most. Figuring out what triggers them will also be useful. I think mine are hormonal. If she gets more than 6-8 outbreaks over a year, you might want to discuss a suppressive dose for a while. I did that for years and it helped a lot.[/quote]
