Herpes is a virus that you have for the rest of your life. When you have an outbreak that is when it shows up as a cold sore. Neosporin will not help a cold sore. You can try abreva or see your doc for a prescription antiviral med.

I got identified with herpes simplex virus (type 2) about five years back, whilst I was still attending college and had a dumb one-night stand. I know a lot of girls say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a huge mistake that one time and all of a sudden it seemed like I was going to have to live with the consequences for my entire life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date other men again. After all, who wants to go out with someone who has sores round her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/MOzjM everything got better.
Not only was I able to eradicate all remnants of the hsv from my system in less than three weeks, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so lucky to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!! This method provided me the chance to be happy and experience true love again. Now I hope that I can help others by sharing this story.

Here's the deal with cold sores. The virus which causes them, herpes simplex I, will always be with you. You cannot get rid of it. Occasionally, sometimes in association with another viral infection, cold, etc. the virus will act up again, causing another cold sore. Putting Neosporin on the cold sore will not heal it, but it will keep it from becoming infected with a bacteria.

it will EVENTUALLY go away on it's own. there's nothing wrong with using neosporin if it makes it feel better, but it is not an effective treatment. you should try abreva (over the counter). or a prescription antiviral.

they can go away by themselves if you dont irritate it, but it can still take quite a while and it's very hard not to irritate it
