How do you cure gentian herpes?

Herpes Simplex Virus Type I is the cause of oral or facial "cold sores" which can also infect the genital region, while Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 primarily infects the genital region. There are no cures for infections caused by either type of virus, but effective treatments are available that help shorten outbreaks, speed healing, and lower the risk of further transmission to others.
