Take lysine - it's an amino acid, and you have to take a lot - 7-8 pills during the day. Also, put abreva on it.

You can take L-Lysine. It is available over the counter at most pharmacies. My husband is taking it for a cold sore right now. If you don't catch the cold sore at first tingle, it will take longer to get rid of, but with the L- Lysine the cold sore won't be nearly as severe. My husband takes one 1000 mg. tablet per day.
Hope this helps.

i dont think there really is a quick fix for this problem as i have had them in the past & they didnt go away real quick, but i did find some relief by useing petroleum jelly on it to make & keep it moist. use it daily & often as there are some healing properties in it.good luck & hang in there!

my best friend is a nurse in a long term care facility for elders. They actually use yeast infection medication...for an example walmart sells the equate brand in a tube. This does work quickly!! good luck

Tooth paste believe it or not,, it's the deep cooling cleaner.. works for teeth and pimpuls and cold sore, and much more that leads to cleaning ...
