Hi I was diagnosed with herpes in September and I just looked at my vagina and it look like I was shedding patches of skin. From the inner part of my lips and in my vagina. I thought it was tissue at first but when I proceeded to rub my finger across it I realized it was skin and it s in varies spots..like small white chunks.. should I be worried?

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Genital herpes can recur when you have low immunity. I usually recommend anti viral famcyclovir orally and acyclovir ointment for local application. You can wash the area with normal saline. In case of burning sensation you can use ice water for washing. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
