How do you get rid of coldsores?

Question

My boyfriend has a cold and also has at least three nasty looking sores on his mouth. How can he get rid of them so I can kiss him again?? LOL x

Answer 1

Go to dr and get meds.

Answer 2

I REALLY wanted you to know that you can EASILY never have to deal with another horrible, awful, nasty cold-sore for the rest of your life!!

I got them every winter my whole life until 3 years ago (I'm 36 now) and they were the BANE of my existence...the whole process took weeks to heal and would leave a scar for at least 2 months sometimes!

I was reading a message board on www.curezone.org and discovered the PERFECT remedy for both healing them and preventing them completely:
OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT


So, I buy the liquid tincture by "HerbPharm" and it has not failed me ONCE...Whenever I'm feeling drained, tired, stressed, or get that tingly feeling on my lip, I just load up on this stuff.

This is the one I buy:

You can also get Olive Leaf at Whole Foods Market, and other natural food stores.

Very cheap.

The first time I tried it, I was actually halfway into a major eruption and I drank a bunch of the extract in some water.
AS I WAS DRINKING the stuff down, I could feel the swelling on my lip shrinking...I was in such shock--I ran to the mirror--it was shrinking before my eyes and within ten minutes my lip had returned to NORMAL...I began kissing the bottle of Olive Leaf...yeah, I really did!!

I had tried everything in the past...I can't begin to tell you what I went through...and it's now been 3 YEARS since I've had one!!

Answer 3

There is some over the counter medicine for cold sores that you can pick up at local grocery stores like target. I think one brand is called abreva...or something a long those lines. Maybe your man should go see a doctor about that they could give him some medication to suppress the breakouts all together.

Answer 4

I had it once and I used Abreva and it worked good. It does take about 5 days depending on individual. I wouldn't kiss him until it's gone. I hope to never get that again!

Answer 5

Just read the following and be aware that even in the absense of his coldsores..you could still get it;
