there are many viruses out there this time of the year that can cause the symptoms you have.  Did they do any lesion cultures of your oral symptoms or just a visual diagnosis?

d you have your blood test results to post?

Your doctor apparently doesn't understand herpes well, or you misunderstood. Anti-HSV treatment speeds healing of HSV lesions, or can be taken daily to prevent them.

However, recurrent herpes outbreaks rarely occur inside the mouth. Only initial infections are inside.

If it's herpes, you should be on one of the herpes drugs like valacyclovir, acyclovir, etc. That's the only thing that will speed healing. Vinegar won't help herpes, canker sores, or anything else -- it will just be painful.  If the diagnosis hasn't been confirmed, see a doctor ASAP.

Hi and welcome. If you have sores inside your mouth and they are not going away they dont appear to be herpes as they do run a cycle from appearing to healing. A person can have an outbreak with an initial infection there but its an odd place for recurrent outbreaks. What makes you believe these are herpes sores?
