Abreva is best, but it is fairly expensive for something over the counter. I agree with the lady who said to consult your doctor. Some people are just prone to fever blisters, which is a form of herpes. However, it might not be sexually transmitted herpes, but I would still check. If you are one of those people who are prone the doctor can prescribe something like Zovirax tablets to aid in keeping them at bay.

I haven't been in your shoes, so I can only pass along what I have seen my dad do - and he swears by it . . . go to the vitamin section of and grocery, pharmacy or discount store and pick up a bottle of Lecithin - it is a safe amino acid. Treat topically with an over the counter cream for cold sores/fever blisters and then begin a regimen of taking the Lecithin - he swears that it reduces both the frequency and duration of the sore.

Try dabbing it with a cottonball to dry the surface of the sore, and then putting a couple drops of bee propolis on it. Do this 2 times a day and in about 3 days it will be gone. If you don't have a bee-honey specialty store in your area, look it up on the Internet. You'll find someone who sell it there for sure. I did and it works.

Abreva over the counter just go get some @ the STORE and take some cotton with Clorox and wipe you mouth piece off gently and then with some alcohol, This keeps germs from re-entering your lips. And maybe just maybe if you do not have oral herpes you just may need a good Colon cleansing. JUST THOUGHT I SHARE THAT WITH YOU. You sound like you are in some PAIN. Take Care

Abreva is great, but expensive... What really works (honest, no lie), is a little gross, but readily available is ear wax. Take a q-tip and get just a bit (don't stick it in too far, don't want your next question to be how do you get a q-tip out of your ear?) and rub it on your fever blister... will dry it up and heal it quickly. Haven't tried this, but know someone who has... good luck.

go to the pharmacy and ask the pharmacist what he/she recommends. campho-phenic works pretty well too.
