If you hurt take your medication. Yes, the sores could be inside you. It is time for you to find a new doctor - a good doctor - who will help you. You should be able to get questions like you are asking answered very quickly. If you post your city, state, zipcode - I'll delete it and no one will see it but me - I'll see what I can find for you.

Herpes can be very painful. Herpes can last a lot longer than 5 days - sometimes as long as 3 weeks. I wouldn't worry - sadly you are just experiencing herpes the way it can be. Hopefully as you get older you will have it less often and it will hurt less. I would not look forward to a cure - there is absolutely no money going into research for herpes as people do not die from herpes.
