Question: I'm in need of legal, otc or homeopathic pain relief!. Any ideas!?
Background:
For several years now I've suffered from a kind of herpes (non contagious) that according to my doctor is a variant of the same strain that produces fever blisters!. Apparently, this strain is very rare, with only one in several thousand people having it!. I think he said that it's a chance for everyone to get it, but it's just something that rarely happens!.
This variation produces a number of ulcers on my throat and palate, which begin first as a series of small blisters!. The outbreaks last usually about a week or two at the most, though I've had some last only a few days!. Since it's a viral problem, there's not much I can really do about it, save search for a way to deal with the pain!.
(Imagine a sore throat, then multiply it by several hundred and you have my pain!.)
Here's the problem!. I detest drugs, and while I do have a back up of loracet should the pain become too much to handle, I don't like the idea of taking them!. So I need something to use in the mean time!. Is there any effective pain medication (Ibuprofen helps but not long enough) or homeopathic trick I can do to ease the pain from the ulcers!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Try a topical like Chloraseptic!. I'd call your doc first and make sure it's ok to use, but it should work very well!. I'd also think there is a prescription equivalent or something that could be made for you!. I think you should ask your doc or even a pharmacist, who will be able to tell you what you can and can't do about it!.
