My 9 year old son keeps getting cold sores way too often.I have a virus myself and i don't get them that often,i get them like 2 or 3 times a year where he gets them monthly(more than once).For adults when you feel it coming you can take some medication to kill it b4 it comes,but for kids i can't give it to him.If anyone knows how to stop it before it comes i would really appreciate it.

it is normal for kids to get them more often than adults, as we age we build something of a tolerance to the virus. But every month would indicate to me that he is nutritionally deficient. I would have him eat more poultry and fresh vegetables. Make sure he uses a lip balm with sun screen, as the sun will often cause outbreaks. As he matures make sure he understands that oral sex is a complete no no for him, as he can transmit that virus even when he doesn't have an active lesion on his mouth, and his future sexual partners will not thank him for giving them genital herpes. Get Abreva for him, it is a good product for the treatment of active lesions, and he should be taught to start using it the very minute he notices the beginning of another sore. Good luck to him and you.

Don't know how to stop them from comming, But you can use hydrogen peroxide to get rid of them, Is it IN the mouth? Or on the lips? On the lips = Cold sore, In the mouth = Canker sore, But you can use hydrogen peroxide and warm super salty water for both, Don't swollow the hydrogen peroxide though lol.

properly sturdy for her. I observed a pair of recommendations...kazoo,guitar, being 2. she would be able to additionally make shakers (somewhat large for those leftover plastic Easter Eggs) and could be made out of many things. Drum(s), enjoying the spoons, Rainsticks ( use a papertowel tube). there's a e book which you would be able to look at of the library which will provide instructions on making abode made instruments, that's component to the babies Can sequence (additionally they have technological know-how, Math, analyzing variations of the e book). i'm hoping that helps and that she enjoys her new instruments.

As soon as you feel them coming, you have to put ice on them for about 10 min. As long as you can handle it. Freeze them! It really works.
