2nd Herpes Outbreak : \?

Okay so I am having my 2nd herpes outbreak and I have a couple of questions. I be diagnosed about 3 months ago and have been thinking nearly getting on Valtrex but haven't yet.
long will this outbreak last?
How much is Valtrex with MA Insurance?
What can i do to stop the itching?
Why is my discharge table lamp green? I know it is not some other std because I only have 1 monogomous parter and it just started near this outbreak.
Please help me.
Also, I am a minor and don't want to tell my gaurdian in the region of the herpes so how much is Valtrex and is there any way to get it free?
Answers:    The 2nd out break could last as long as the first or it could last a couple of days shorter after your first. There is nothing that will tell you how long your out breaks should last, but they typically concluding between 1-2 weeks in the beginning if they are sever.
Valtrex should be much cheaper with insurance later with out it. As for how much that is some thing you will own to ask the pharmacists in your area.
discharge could be the sign of another std. Herpes doesn't cause green discharge but when the blisters burst there can be some white fluid. You can get an std even if you hold been monogamous with 1 partner, they could have stds and not even know it, most of the time stds don't show various symptoms.
Get the green discharge diagnosed and treated. Wait until the out break is completely healed and gone, then wait a few more days for viral shedding to be reduced.
There is no method to get Valtrex for free, you could try ordering it online. You don't have to update your parents or guardians that you have herpes, that is your choice. But you may feel smaller quantity like your hiding some thing from them. Once they get previous you having an std then they could would want to see you get you treated.
That first answer given be extremely insensitive!
anyhow. Most outbreaks last about 2 weeks, taking Valtrex will shorten the duration of the outbreak. Valtrex can also be used to prevent future outbreaks next to once daily dosage. I am not sure if Planned Parenthood gives this type of medicine but I would recomend calling them and checking. I would regard as that they can at least give you a script for it. Not sure how much it costs, but if you call any pharmacy they can let somebody know you.
equired, take a painkiller, e.g. ibuprofen, paracetamol or soluble aspirin. This reduces strain and inflammation. (Always follow manufacturers' instructions - and don't take aspirin if you have been told not to by a doctor.)
Wash your hand before touching blisters/sores (e.g. when applying medication) as you could introduce bacteria. This could cause an secondary infection and delay the healing process.
Apply a local anaesthetic ointment, e.g. Lignagel 2 % or lidocaine 5% cream (this used to be called lignocaine). These may be used on genital or facial sores. If you need a stronger anaesthetic try Xylocaine 10% spray. Dab on (or spray on) as required to relieve pain, especially past urinating - see below. (These are all available from a pharmacy without a prescription.) Occasionally lignocaine/xylocaine can cause hypersensitivity. If it make your skin more sore, stop using it and your skin will return to normal.
Keep the sores moist, e.g. apply petroleum jelly/Vaseline.
d scented soap and deodorants. It is best not to use wipe, gel or soap in this area, but if you do, use an unscented brand.
Avoid over-washing as this can increase irritation and delay soothing.
Dab dry carefully with a tissue after washing or use a coat dryer set at 'cold'.
To reduce itching, keep the area as cool as is practical: try an rime pack well-wrapped in cloth for as long as you like (90 minutes). DO NOT put ice directly on the skin.
Do not over-treat the sores - let the skin alleviate. Symptoms will heal with or without treatment.
