Answers: antiseptis type the one that doesnt damage ur living tissue but destroys invaders on contact

sometimes i think wouldn't it be great if they did (only because i have herpes). i'm not sure if every one would be into usin it though. some stds are spread through skin and it would have to be hypoallergenic and not cause irritation. because it would be going in vaginas and urethras and could cause some irritation and urinary infections. iif they could do that i would be all for it.

Viral STDs such as genital herpes, genital warts, hepatitis A, B & C, HIV can not be cured.
Treatment for herpes simplex infections: Symptoms can be relieved with medications such as acyclovir.
Genital Herpes: Acyclovir 200-400mg three times a day for 10 days;
Herpes prophylaxis: Acyclovir 200-400mg twice a day
Herpes zoster (shingles): Acyclovir 800mg 5 times a day for 10 days
While herpes is not life-threatening, and not all people who have it suffer from outbreaks, those who do experience outbreaks find that topical medication as Zovirax ointment eases the pain and can help speed recovery when blisters appear.
Please note that virus lives within the human cell and hence the same cannot be killed without destructing the cell.

Herpes, like any other virus cannot be cured. It has to run its course. Best you can do is treat symptoms and use caution not to spread it to an unknowing partner.

A topical cream wouldn't help because the virus is inside your body. It shows on your skin but it's in your whole system. You can't kill the virus that way.
