Question : I would like to know average number of treatments to cure HSV-2 (Genital Warts) via ozone/uvbi therapy if caught in it's early stages. The confirmation testing showed 9.42 on IGG blood test for HSV-2.
Brief Answer:
4-6 weeks is the usual duration of therapy.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir
I can certainly understand your concern.
Treatment time for Ozone/UV therapy is usually 5 - 15 minutes.
The patient may lower the ozone concentration, and the duration of the treatment if any discomfort occurs.
This treatment should not be performed more than once per day, and is usually only performed 2-3 times per week.
The treatment can extend over a period of 4-6 weeks.
Please check with your physician.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you
