and other object that have contact the genital lesion is important to do. For
the underwear, you better choose cotton underwear and loose fitting clothes
type. Those two type of clothing will help you ease with several common suffer

sensation.
Wrong choice of underwear material is silk
underwear. Other clothing type that including into a ‘no’ choice are synthetic
pantyhose, restrictive clothing, tight underwear and pants. Those are prohibited
since it makes the symptom get worse such as itchy and pain. You will easily
feel itchy and makes you want to scrub and spread the lesion into another part
of your body. Synthetic material is not a great choice since it is not make your
skin easily to breathe like cotton.

of your body or your partner when you touch them while you have genital herpes.
