Depends on where you have the break out.

If it's on your mouth then you can use over the counter creams like Abreva on the sore and apply it regularly.

If it's on the genitals then you shouldn't be putting any cream on it, just let it air out so it can dry up and heal faster. For genital break outs the best treatment is antiviral medication or suppressants.
