Does anyone know if I can buy a cream over the counter? Google seems to have every cream for cold sores but can’t find anything for genitals.

No GP available so can’t get prescription and dreading a weekend of this.

Don't know, but if you go to a pharmacy you can ask to speak to the pharmacist privately. They usually take you to a side room and you can ask. They can suggest something OTC or might even be able to prescribe.

I get it terribly orally and found lemon balm from H&B to speed up the healing. If ur in pain a local numbing cream could help I’m sure a pharmacy will sell it?
