Herpes Bling? Jewelry for cold sores???

Question

My friend said he saw this wesbite called HerpesBling.com on CNN which is some girl's idea to sell jewelry to cover up cold sores. She claimed she was always embarrassed to use makeup so she started using jewelry. The video is totally gross and I can't imagine anyone would actually wear the jewelry. It's probably just a gag gift that no one would actually wear. Anyway, have you heard of anything this bizarre???

That was just about the funniest thing I have seen.....

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!

I've been in the Alternative Medicine field for some time now, and offer individualized consultations:

Answer 4

Anyone experiencing a cold sore breakout should NOT cover it with trinkets but should treat it effectively so that it goes away faster.


A a cold sore is an outbreak of the herpes simplex virus (HSV1). It is estimated that over 90% of Americans carry the virus, but only about 30% of those have cold sore outbreaks.

Cold sore treatment options vary widely. There is prescription medication, over-the-counter medication, and home remedies for cold sores - many of which work remarkably well.

Here are some links to a site that helped me with my own cold sore problems. Since I used some of the methods outlined here, I haven't had a problem.

This is a link to the “Ultimate Cold Sore Treatments Guide” that outlines a bunch of cold sore remedies that work, both medicinal and home treatments:

This link is an entire glossary listing all of the best cold sore treatments compiled on to one web page:

Finally, this link is to the one medication that is proven to heal cold sores faster than anything else on the market:

That site is updated pretty regularly. Hope this helps!

Answer 5

That's disgusting.
It could spread the cold sore and make it worse. Eww. Just buy medicine and put it on it. Take vitamnin c. Hold your ego and wait it out. >.O

Answer 6

I think the worst thing you can do is draw attention to your sores.

Besides, it won't heal without air/oxygen to dry it up.

Answer 7

not till now, too much free time for some people
