How to get rid of cold sores?!
Question: How to get rid of cold sores?
Answers:
i think you can try putting honey on it, or eat a lot of vitamin c, and sleep a lot. i always had cold sores inside my mouth and that usually worked. usually the vitamin c though... hoped this helped!
my personal experience
Well - your "friends" are partly right -- cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus -- (not the STD kind) - Carmex will not cure them -- it only helps keep the area moist -
Try OTC Abreva -- or if you continue to have them frequently - you need to see your Dr. for some meds - Also try to drink less sodas - drink Cranberry juice and take a multi-vitamin -
there is probably something in your immune system that is out of whack -

just don't play with them.
that is about all you can do. carmex doesn't work for cold sores, idk why people think that?
the only thing that ever worked for my cold sores was abreva...unfortunately, my friend, they will more than likely come back. i deal with cold sores every time i get sick.
tell yo mama that.
