Possible HSV

Detailed Answer:
those look like possible herpes lesions.
I would suggest trying acyclovir cream.
ideally oral acyclovir is also recommended but that needs a prescription.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal.
