Depends what kind of herpes. If you are currently infectious with chicken pox, you should not be working (you should also warn patients that you treated in the last few days, in case they get chicken pox. It's dangerous to the immuno-compromised/elderly etc...). The same applies to shingles (a reactivation of the chicken pox virus along nerve endings).
If it's just a herpes cold sore, or a small patch of skin affected (i.e. not shingles), then you're probably safe to work, so long at the patch of skin will not come into contact with patients (so not on hands etc...).

Does being on valtrex and having dental work cause a problem?
Valtrex is an antiviral medication commonly prescribed to treat and prevent outbreaks of herpes simplex virus infections, including oral herpes (HSV-1) and genital herpes (HSV-2). When undergoing dental work, it's generally safe to take Valtrex, but it's important to inform your dentist about all the medications you are currently taking, including Valtrex. While Valtrex itself does not typically cause any specific complications during dental procedures, it's essential to communicate with your dentist to ensure they are aware of your medical history and medications. This allows them to take any necessary precautions or make adjustments to your treatment plan if needed. There are a few factors to consider when taking Valtrex and undergoing dental work: Potential Weakening of the Immune System: In some cases, Valtrex may suppress the immune system. If you have a compromised immune system, it's important to inform your dentist, as certain dental procedures may require additional precautions or modifications. Interactions with Other Medications: Valtrex may interact with other medications, including those used during dental procedures. Inform your dentist about all the medications you are taking, including Valtrex, to ensure there are no potential adverse interactions. Oral Herpes Outbreaks: If you are taking Valtrex for oral herpes and have an active outbreak at the time of your dental appointment, it's important to inform your dentist. They may need to take additional precautions to prevent the spread of the virus during the procedure. By keeping your dentist informed about your medical history, medications, and any active infections, they can provide appropriate care and take necessary precautions to ensure your safety and comfort during dental work. Always follow the advice and recommendations of your healthcare professionals, including your dentist and prescribing physician, to ensure proper coordination of your medications and dental treatment.
