[quote=Anonymous]Poor thing! I started getting them as a child and it was so embarrassing. Still is, but at least they now have good Rx remedies. Valtrex works wonders if taken at the first signs. Basically, nothing develops if you catch it early enough. Denavir, I was told, is more to keep it moisturized. I also recommend wearing a Chapstick wih SPF. The sun was/is always a big trigger. Lastly, encourage her to touch it as little as possible. It can be awfully itchy/tingly in the beginning, but responding to that makes it worse/bigger.[/quote]
