i put lip seal (or Vaseline etc) on it and then i press some salt on top (leave overnight)
this stings a bit but it bursts any blister and allows it to start healing.
this gets them completely gone in 4 days.
I use to get the same thing, but my g-friend insisted that I start taking this new pill out for cold sores I was getting. Well despite their stupid name, the sh** worked for my cold sores, all the way around. They are natural and I'm their new biggest fan. Anyway, it's called The Canker Spanker, no joke - don't get me started on their name.
Sigh. Time and rest heal these things. Get extra rest, avoid sugar, honey, corn syrup, etc., and make sure you're eating 3 well-balanced meals a day. Try to avoid stress. (Sugar, honey, and corn syrup depress production of white blood cells, which are what help you fight infections.)
ABREVA! Cold sores take forever to go away but ABREVA DRIES THEM OUT FAST. Every time I take it the sore only lasts like 3 days. It's kinda pricey though... about 20 bucks for a tiny little tube, but worth it!! Good luck!
