What Causes Burning Sensation On The Skin While Suffering From Oral Herpes?
I am taking 750 mgs Divalproex Sodium ER 24 Hr 250 for mood stablisation. I have been on this level of med for 10 days. I have had oral herpes simplex 1 in my mouth and have had a sore mouth generally. My skin is beginning to burn very mildly on my upper mouth and nostrels and mildly on the back of my hands. My psychistrist is calling me later. But can Stevens-Johnson syndrome gradually show up?

Hi,
Burning sensation is due to the oral herpes. You may require tablet Aciclovir after consultation. You can take tablet multivitamin to improve immunity. Apply Lignocaine gel for ulcers. Take tablet Paracetamol for fever. Take proper nutritious diet.
