I used H Balm for the first time last night

I used H Balm for the first time last night. I don’t like it. I have genital herpes and it has made me burn so bad and cause a really warm sensation on my vaginal area. It says to put it on the soles of your feet as well and that made my feet feel really warm too. It has been a strange and uncomfortable feeling. Maybe I just have really sensitive skin, but I don’t recommend it. H-balm has not helped me like I thought it would. - Kristy

The latest on H Balm and Abreva

I had a couple of people write in to me over the weekend to share their personal experiences with H Balm and Abreva. They don’t seem to be too happy with the products at this point in time. I’ve included their comments on the H Balm Comments and Abreva Comments pages I have so you guys can read what they had to say.

On those pages you can also find links to polls where you are able to vote on products and treatments that have worked OR not worked for you. That’s all over on the Shut Up N Post! STD Message Board.

The thing about Abreva is that it’s only been clinically proven to treat cold sores OR fever blisters which is just another way of saying that it can treat oral herpes outbreaks. The other thing about that is I would just assume that an oral herpes antiviral would work better than a topical since they say that it’s much better to keep the area clean and dry while you like the oral herpes antivirals go to work on the outbreak. I honestly don’t understand why people would prefer a cream to treat oral herpes outbreaks unless of course it had some numbing effect on curbing the pain that is sometimes associated with oral herpes outbreaks.

As for the latest comment on H Balm. I have never heard of H Balm being clinically proven to specifically treat herpes. I personally have to wonder about a product that supposedly helps to treat everything under the sun. Did you notice that there is a cure for all the ailments listed on their site? Now I have heard of some people using H Balm to help with the pain while they are waiting for their clinically proven herpes antivirals to kick in. I suppose that would be ok to do if you think it’s what works for you.
