Cold sore usually goes away from 7-14 days. It is caused by a virus called Varissella Zoster and when you get it, it shows up once in a while.
There are several effective treatment for cold sore, none of theme are able to shorten the period significantly. Instead they have effects on the reccurence and the infection complication. The best of theme is Zovirax (Acyclovir) ointment, that should be used five times daily.
Remember NOT to rub it on your cold sore IT WILL STIMULATE IT MORE THAN CURE IT. try to put a spot on the infected area that covers it all.

Get a prescription of 1% denavir cream. Works get. Apply at onset of symptons, the blisters and sore won't appear. Decreases the pain and duration.
