yes, I've found the perfect way to stop them at the beginning...get some milk Of Magnesia and rinse your mouth with it...it will coat them and stop getting bigger, and it also stops the hurt! |

I buy a little bottle of zinactin .. they sell in walmart. and it works very well just before the break out.. you can prevent cold sores by taking L- Lysine vitamins. |

I've always used a very common kitchen spice - Alum.
Alum is used to turn cucumbers into pickles.
It's safe, stings a little and tastes like Aspirin. It heals super duper quick. Try to get it in powder form, as it adheres easier.
You can also use it for opened canker sores, cuts and such. |

Ice cubes on them soothes the itch/pain. but other than that I have found the very best way is to NOT TOUCH them AT ALL. No creams, NOTHING AT ALL....My last one only lasted 2 DAYS. I couldn't believe it as usually they hang round for a week or so. |

Lode up on Lysine from pharm or health food store or see your doctor about a prescription for antiviral oint or pill. |

blistex ...I get them in my nose :( not visible but painful!!! Its a virus thats always there - no way to get rid of it ...most of the time it 'sleeps' but as soon as I feel the tingle I put blistex on it which stops it from going extremely bonkers (it will not help get completely rid of it though) |

There is a prescription pill that stop them if you take them right away. There is also creams that help it stop if you start your application as soon as you feel them. The pills are the most effective, if you take them at the right time nothing ever shows up. |

Abreva is the only OTC cold sore medicine that actually protects your healthy cells from the Herpes virus. Thus, if you can apply it at the first sign of a cold sore, you can actually speed the healing process by stopping the virus from attacking more healthy cells.
My aunt gets 2-3 cold sores a year and swears by abreva. She says that she can sometimes stop an outbreak when she uses it right away.
Good luck! |
