lemon juice is the best! better than any medication. it took me years of suffering to find this out. i use it on my son too who gets cold sores. they start to dry out immedietly. put on 3 times a day or so. amazing! and think of all the money the companies are making out of cold sore remedies. it boggles the mind...

Hi poor thing! If you hold an ice cube on until its numb. It works before it becomes a sore. Simple i know but it does work! Good luck

Best thing I've used is Spirits of Camphor.
Apply several times a day. Relieves soreness and heals fast.
External use only.

Aloe vera works wonders. You also can apply some viniger to it as it helps to dry the sore out.

Mix 4 drops of tea tree oil (available at any health food store) with four tablespoons of olive oil. Pat mixture on sore several times daily.

The tannin in tea helps dry it. You can hold a cold teabag on it.

Ouch! Hope those things dry up soon.

Aloe vera, baking soda and spearmint oil.

Also try stuff like calamine to dry out the sore-causing chemicals.

YES i had the same problem first put a HOT tea bag on it 4 5 min then put tootpaste on it for over night in the do that 4 3 days it will be gone i was so happy

if you are getting blister like sores on your lips and they itch and tingle before popping out you and your friends have herpes simplex 1 and it is contagious. You might be reinfecting yourself with the lip medication. There is a supplement to take that will lessen the time it takes to get rid of them and will prevent them from coming if you start taking it at the first sign of that itch/tingle. Then, what every lip balm you use during an outbreak, throw it away afterwords because you can reinfect yourself over and over from using it. The supplement is called lysine. you can also get lip balm with lysine in it. They both work. Be aware not to go around kissing anyone or have oral sex at this time because this is a life long virus that will never go away and you can infect others. google it for more info. Getting them has nothing to do with cold/flu season although exposure to the sun in the summer will sometimes set them off. Some people feel sick while they have an outbreak too.
