herpes simplex
"This is a god send. I was reluctant to pay the $400 since my insurance only covered the pills and not the ointment, but I'm really glad I did. My sore was looking very sinister and just kept growing until I put acyclovir cream on it. It dried up over night and is basically a scab now. It would normally take my sores weeks to go away completely, but from the looks of it now I think this will be gone in a few days. Totally worth the price for me because my work is very much dependant on my face. I was worried I wouldn't be able to work for a few weeks, but looks like I'll be back by Monday. (it's Thursday morning now. Sore started on Tuesday afternoon and I put the ointment on Wednesday morning)."
