Question:
i got H a few months ago, and im not sure if im having an outbreak or not... BUT IM ITCHY LIKE CRAZY!!!!!!!!! am i having one??? are there any creams to stop it???? HELP!

Answer:
I don't know itching indicates an outbreak. You're doctor would probably be your best resource on that question. I have experienced intense itching and attributed it to that myself. My doctor prescribed a cream called Lidamantal. It has some lidocane in it and it helps me not only with the itching but with particularly painful outbreaks as well. I hope that helps! :wink:

Answer:
i've only had a couple of outbreaks, but they've so far been preceeded by itching. itching like crazy describes it pretty well. the first time i thought i had a yeast infection. doc gave me zovirax cream for the itching and the pain that comes later. it works but you're supposed to reapply it after you use the bathroom which sucks.
