I recently found out I'm HSV1 IgG positive, and I have some concerns. I read that 3.7 billion people are infected with HSV1 according to WHO. I'm not currently taking any medicine for herpes, but I'm wondering if I should start some kind of treatment. Could you give me some advice on whether treatment is necessary or any possible next steps? I'm really looking for guidance here.

I'm a bit concerned about using Mela Clear cream. My doctor recommended it to me, but I'm worried about any potential side effects it might have in the future. Should I go ahead and use the cream, or could it cause issues later on?
Mela Clear cream is a topical cream that is commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots on the skin. It contains a combination of ingredients such as hydroquinone, tretinoin, and corticosteroids. When used as directed by your doctor, Mela Clear cream can be effective in improving skin tone and reducing dark spots. However, it is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and not exceed the recommended dosage, as prolonged use of hydroquinone can lead to side effects such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin. If you experience any adverse reactions while using Mela Clear cream, it is important to discontinue use and consult your doctor for further guidance.
