pee in a sitz tub...
-For painful urination try diluting your urine by pouring water on yourself while releasing your pee or if you can sit in a shallow tub, release in there. If you don't have access to a tub, you may also urinate in a sitz bath. You can also try catching the urine in a container to reduce the chance of irritating the blisters/sores
-Epsom salts, can be used in a warm bath for those with genital herpes and can help soothe and control itching and inflammation
-Coconut Oil...
@kayy1620 Try putting bag balm on the area before you pee. My initial breakout was so bad; peeing was about impossible. I always keep this anti septic salve on hand for cuts, dry skin, etc. It's thick, and stays in place. It worked great!
My first breakout was painful and lasted 2 weeks from start to finish. I tried everything to help with the pain to the point I asked to be catharized so that I didn't have to urinate because I couldn't handle the pain of urine touching my sores.
I've only had one outbreak since and have been taking Valtrex religiously for over a year now and it does help suppress the outbreaks.
I hope it gets better for you!
