<h2>Vegan alternative to carmex for cold sores?</h2>
<p>I get cold sores (at least I think they&#8217;re cold sores), and they stay forEVER. I hate them.</p>
<p>I used to use carmex.</p>
<p>Then I went vegan.</p>
<p>And then I started getting cold sores. (I don&#8217;t even know how. I don&#8217;t share drinks, and I&#8217;ve never been kissed. Ugh. Way to reward a teen for innocent behavior.)</p>
<p>But I&#8217;d like to get rid of them&#8230; because now I have three. One is almost gone, but I&#8217;ve had it for two weeks. Another one is leaving, but I just got a new one yesterday&#8230;</p>
<p>Help?<br />
Somebody asked what&#8217;s not vegan about carmex.</p>
<p>Carmex, like most chapstick-related things, has lanolin in it. Lanolin comes from sheep.<br />
Someone else said that lanolin/shearing sheep does not hurt the sheep. With nice farmers, that is probably the case. But commercial wool and most lanolin probably come from not so animal-friendly sources. I read somewhere that the workers sheer the sheep as quickly as possible&#8211;they&#8217;re paid for how much they sheer, not how long they work. And their haste results in the sheep getting hurt. I know that sheering sheep is just like getting a haircut&#8211;but if the people doing the sheering are careless, the sheep get cut.</p>

<p class="dtm-content">Try tea tree oil. It&#8217;s a natural antiseptic and is reported to work wonderfully on cold sores.</p>
<p>A relative has dealt with cold sores throughout his entire life (that must suck as a kid), but he hasn&#8217;t had one since he started using tea tree oil to treat blemishes. Although he&#8217;s not sure if he can officially thank the oil, he applied it whenever he felt that telltale tingling and nothing ever appeared. If/when he does get another one (knock on wood), he will definitely use tea tree oil to treat it.</p>
<p>Whatever you try, I sincerely hope it works! <img src='http://www.howtogetridofcoldsore.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<h3>admin answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">Purchase an over-the-counter cold sore treatment as soon as you feel the tingling that indicates a cold sore is imminent. The treatment should contain docosonal or benzyl alcohol and will typically be packaged in gel or cream form. Abreva and Zilactin are common over-the-counter products that you can purchase at any drugstore or pharmacy. Then wash your hands,lips and face with warm water and soap and dry with clean towel.<br />
Apply a small amount of the cold sore treatment directly onto the cold sores on your lips and the surrounding area. You may use your finger or a cotton swab. Rub the gel or cream in thoroughly and avoid licking your lips as much as possible.<br />
Wash your hands thoroughly after touching your cold sore. Avoid kissing other people and especially avoid contact with young children or elderly people. Cold sores are very contagious and can be spread easily.<br />
Visit your doctor if your cold sore does not go away after two weeks or if you have a severe outbreak. Your doctor may prescribe an antiviral medication to treat your cold sores.</p>

<h2>What is the best cold sore remedy?</h2>
<p>I have a very acute allergy to certain foods and such. I am deathly allergic to all nuts. I am allergic to dust, melons and am very allergic to pollen.</p>
<p>When I eat thin skinned fruits, if i am not careful and I bite the fruit and the broken skin of the fruit touches my lips, sometimes I get a cold sore on my lip.</p>
<p>I have been told that this is because pollen penetrates the fruit&#8217;s thin skin as it grows and when I bite into the fruit, the pollen gets onto my lips.</p>
<p>I understand that the majority of answers will be statements of Herpes and such. That is fine, but please if you know any remedies on how to treat a cold sore, it would be greatly appreciated!</p>
<p>Thank you.<br />
I felt the tingle of the sore come on at about 6pm lastnight and wan&#8217;t able to use herpecinL on it until this morning at 7am. there are two tiny blisters. I just tried the rubbing alcohol treatment, I have &#8220;alcohol prep pads&#8221; they are 70% isopropyl alcohol.</p>
<p>Is this the correct type, and if, at this stage, will the alcohol work?</p>

<h2>How can you tell if it&#8217;s a pimple or a cold sore?</h2>
<p>I have a spot on my lip right where the skin goes from pink to white and I can&#8217;t tell if it&#8217;s a cold sore or a pimple. It hurts&#8230; um, it&#8217;s red, I can send you a picture if you need it. The main reason i&#8217;m asking is because i&#8217;ve been informed that a cold sore is the oral herpes virus and you can give it to someone else in the form of genital herpes if you&#8230; well&#8230; you know! Lol, so if anyone could tell me the difference and a good way to treat cold sores (if that&#8217;s what&#8217;s goin&#8217; on with my lip) that would be so nice! Thanks for the help in advance, and serious answers please! Have a wonderful evening!</p>

<h3>admin answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">Yes it could be a cold sore, a cold sore is HSV1 and herpes are called HSV2 Both virus types can cause lip and mouth sores (herpes labialis) and genital herpes if your skin comes into contact with either type.Cold sores are blisters on the lips and the edge of the mouth. A picture would be helpful, but the sites listed below will explain what a cold sore is and the bottom sites have pics of cold sores. You can compare yours to the pics decide for yourself. If you do have a cold sore there is no cure for the virus, but there are treatments that could help with itching and other discomfort of a cold sore. Personally I use carmex, there is a brand called abriva it is suppose to help cure a cold sore faster, I have tried it and have found it to be no better then carmex, only triple the cost. If you do have a cold sore, do not squeeze it as this can cause the infection to spread and you will have a lot more sores.HSV-1 is responsible for only 5-10% of genital herpes cases, while HSV-2 causes the majority of genital herpes cases. Not every person that has HSV 1 has HSV 2!!</p>

<h2>How long does it take a Cold Sore to heal?</h2>
<p>Alright, I&#8217;m trying not to panic right now, but I have to admit, I&#8217;m under a lot of stress. Not only do my finals start TOMORROW (and I feel completely over-whelmed), I also have my university&#8217;s ring ceremony on Tuesday &#8211; and my school makes a big deal out of it. It really is a huge family and friends event. (Don&#8217;t ask me why it is in the middle of finals though). However, when I woke up this morning I felt the tale-tell tingle on my upper lip and immediately took a capsule of 200MG of Acyclovir and put 50MG of Acyclovir topical ointment on the sore directly. I have been continuously re-applying the ointment throughout the day and just took my third dose of the oral medication. (I can take it up to 4 times a day).</p>
<p>So, with this regiment, on average, how long does a cold sore take to heal? This is my first time using oral medication to treat cold sores, so I have no idea what to expect. I am hoping it will be cleared up by Tuesday. =(<br />
Wow, honestly only one person sounds like they even read my question. I&#8217;m ALREADY doing stuff to take care of it &#8211; and I didn&#8217;t ask anything about curing it, since I know there is no cure. I&#8217;ve gotten these my whole life, but I&#8217;ve never taken an ORAL medication (only topical) &#8211; thanks to those who actually read my question and given me an appropriate response.</p>

<h3>admin answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">Based on your medical info &#8211; if you were able to stop the sore before it broke through the skin, it should clear up within 3 days. One thing you do not want to do it over use the topical medication to the point of irritation. You can also use Hydro-cortisone as a healing agent. Tea tree oil is a wonderful preventative also when you start to feel that &#8216;tingle&#8217;.</p>
<p>Remember, please, a cold sore is Herpes Simplex I &#8211; or a single sore, which CAN be transmitted to other individuals lips, eyes, and private areas. This was one of the &#8216;I wish I had known that before&#8230;&#8217;, I heard over and over again.</p>

<p class="dtm-content">Herpes simplex is a nasty little bugger that is transmittable during any stage of its explosion. From that first little tingle, first bit of swelling , through the blister and especially when its open. You should wait until it has been healed over for a full week before you participate in kissing and the likes. Don&#8217;t even share a cigarette or a straw until then. Keep it to yourself ! By the way&#8230;it never goes away ! It can sit dormant for a long time between break outs. Don&#8217;t think you&#8217;re cured cause it healed over. IT NEVER GOES AWAY !</p>

<h2>How do I get rid of a Cold Sore?</h2>
<p>About 2 days ago i notice a weird feling on my upper lip, right under my left nostril. I decided to try and treat it with Proactiv&#8217;s Refining mask, but than didn&#8217;t work. Eventually it turned into what I believe is a Cold Sore. Should I wash it with hot-soapy water like once a day, put ice on it, or continue with the proactiv refining mask treatment? People say ice really helps, but people also usually say the hotter the better, but then why should I use ice if that&#8217;s the case?</p>

Virulite cold sore treatment review by  Bored With It Now<br />
This review is from: Virulite Cold Sore Machine (Personal Care)<br />
<strong><br />
This Virulite cold sore treatment machine is brilliant. I had the first version of this Virulite cold sore treatment machine for 5 years before it stopped working. This Virulite device really works, forget the creams, if you catch the cold sore early you can stop it altogether, if you already got a cold sore it will stop it&#8217;s progress and half the time it takes to go away. Get one it really works. DD<br />

Virulite cold sore and herpes simplex machine review by Bobby Lall (REAL NAME)<br />
This review is from: Virulite Cold Sore Machine (Personal Care)<br />
<strong><br />
Every year I used to dread february as I knew I would get a cold sore. Obviously like most cold sore sufferers you try everything under the sun, excuse the pun. I stumbled across this Virulite product by the usual &#8220;cold sore cures&#8221; via google. So decided to give it a go; February has come and gone and I had 1 potential cold sore flare up which I immediately &#8220;attacked&#8221; with the Virulite.<br />
</strong><br />
I thought that it was a coincidence\luck when it didn&#8217;t flare up at all. I was absolutely chuffed. I felt a tingling again (march 2010) and a tiny blister appeared &#8211; done the Virulite and within 1 day it&#8217;s gone. BUY THIS PRODUCT IF YOU SUFFER FROM COLDSORES &#8211; it&#8217;s the best thing I&#8217;ve used. Pain free, no mess easy to use. Brilliant Cold Sore Machine<br />
<strong><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>5.0 out of 5 stars</strong></span> Virulite Cold Sore Machine, 26 Jan 2010<br />
Virulite review by G. J. Davies (REAL NAME) This review is from: Virulite Cold Sore Machine (Personal Care)<br />
</strong><br />
Within a few days of receiving this Virulite Cold Sore Treatment and Cold Sore Remedies product I developed a cold sore blister below my lip. I used the Virulite cold sore machine a couple of times a day for about three days and found after about a week there was no sign of the cold sore. Having used creams and taken tablets for many years I think that this Virulite Cold Sore Treatment and Cold Sore Remedies machine will be an absolute boon.<br />
<strong><br />
2.0 out of 5 stars Virulite cold sore treatment. Not convinced, 5 Nov 2010<br />
Virulite review by dodes1975. This review is from: Virulite Cold Sore Machine (Personal Care)<br />
</strong><br />
I wish I had as much luck as these other Virulite reviewers. I&#8217;m afraid it did NOTHING for me. I got it when it was advertised at £19.99, rather than £39.99 in other places, and I&#8217;m glad I didn&#8217;t spend any more on it. I used it one evening when I first felt the tingling, but alas, by morning, a blister had arrived. I then used it several times during the day, only to wake up the next day with a MASSIVE cold sore &#8211; so big the doctor even exclaimed at its largeness!<br />
<strong><br />
The only thing that&#8217;s ever worked for me is the Aciclovir in tablet form. 200mg 5 times a day means mine don&#8217;t erupt, and if they already have, the aciclovir heals them rapidly. It&#8217;s not great having to take anti-viral tablets, but it&#8217;s the only thing that really works, and anyone who gets bad cold sores knows that the pain is so intense and the psychological effect so vile that we just want the thing OFF. The doctor can prescribe the tablets (I have a repeat prescription so that I have a set in &#8216;store&#8217;) and they really really work. I will try Virulite cold sore treatment machine again, but I&#8217;m not giving up the anti-viral tablets yet!<br />

Virulite review by elp. This review is from: Virulite Cold Sore Machine (Personal Care)<br />
<strong><br />
I have been a sufferer of dreaded cold sores for a few years and not just small little blisters but whenever I got one I couldnt go out in public. Quite literally my mouth would blow up and I looked disfigured (really my nearest and dearest confirmed it!).<br />
</strong><br />
Every holiday or night away I would worry to whether I would develop a cold sore which plagued me for years. I tried everything on the market included prescription medicine and nothing seemed to really help that much.<br />
<strong><br />
I read a newspaper article about this Virulite machine and the success of the clinical trial about 5 years ago and ordered one. I have been overwhelmed with how amazing the Virulite Cold Sore Machine is.<br />
</strong><br />
I have been cold sore free for 3 years now (touch wood) and if I ever feel the tingle I use the Virulite Cold Sore machine and nothing comes up. I will be eternally grateful for the invention of this machine and more people should know about it!<br />

<p class="dtm-content">Hi Thomas, I will try and help you here. Unless you already have the medication H-Cold Sores, it is not likely that you can get rid of them in a day.<span id="more-67"></span><br />
This is the absolute best treatment for cold sores and is a 100% natural remedy, no prescription needed but it is recommended by Doctors. I understand it was first intended for genital herpes, but cold sores are caused by the same family of viruses, and this is the only thing I’ve found to stop colds sores in their tracks.<br />
None of the other treatments come close to the effectiveness of this, not the ointment Zovirax, and not Abreva or anything else.<br />
My own doctor told me about it, and after using it only a couple of times I hardly ever get a cold sore any more, and I was having several attacks a year.<br />
On the rare occasions that I do get one, it is gone almost immediately when I take the medication &#8211; in about a day. The only snag is that it’s only available on the internet, but nowadays that means you can have it next day. Here are a couple of informative links:</p>

<h3>admin answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">James, let me explain a bit about cold sores:</p>
<p>A cold sore is a fluid-filled blister which usually appears at the edge of the lips. Cold sores are caused by a herpes simplex virus infection.</p>
<p>While anyone can be infected by herpes virus, not everyone will show symptoms.<br />
The primary infection can cause symptoms like other viral infections including tiredness, headache, fever, and swollen lymph nodes in the neck.</p>
<p>Because oral herpes is so common, it is diagnosed primarily by symptoms. It can be diagnosed and treated by the family doctor, dermatologists (doctors who specialize in skin diseases) and infectious disease specialists. Laboratory tests may be performed to look for the virus.</p>
<p><strong>Treatment</strong></p>
<p>There is no cure for herpes virus infections. There are antiviral drugs available that have some effect on lessening the symptoms and decreasing the length of herpes outbreaks.</p>
<p>H-Cold Sores is choice of drug for herpes It can be applied directly to sores as an ointment. H-Cold Sores is effective in treating both the primary infection and recurrent outbreaks.</p>
<p>During an outbreak of cold sores, salty foods, citrus foods (oranges etc.), and other foods that irritate the sores should be avoided. Wash the sores once or twice a day with warm, soapy water and pat gently to dry.</p>
<p>Over-the-counter lip products that contain the chemical phenol (such as Blistex Medicated Lip Ointment) and numbing ointments (Anbesol) help to relieve cold sores. A bandage may be placed over the sores to protect them and prevent spreading the virus to other sites on the lips or face. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) may be taken if necessary to reduce pain and fever.</p>
<p><strong>Alternative treatment</strong></p>
<p>Vitamin and mineral supplements and diet may have an effect on the recurrence and duration of cold sores. In general, cold sore sufferers should eat a healthy diet of unprocessed foods such as vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Alcohol, caffeine, and sugar should be avoided.</p>
<p>Foods rich in arginine that should be avoided are chocolate, peanuts, almonds, and other nuts and seeds.<br />
Vitamin C and bioflavonoids (a substance in fruits that helps the body to absorb and use vitamin C) have been shown to reduce the duration of a cold sore outbreak and reduce the number of sores.</p>
<p>The vitamin B complex includes important vitamins that support the nervous system where viruses can hide out. Here is that link again to <strong><a href="http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=119762&amp;BID=12176" target="_blank">H-Cold Sores</a></strong></p>

<h3>admin answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">So it is completely healed? If so, there is no way to get rid of the scar, because that scar represents a point of infection, just like you can&#8217;t get rid of herpes, you can&#8217;t get rid of the scar because the scar is part of the herpes infection. Sorry if it sounds confusing, but all you can do is cover it up.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong>Like most people, I also fall victim to the Herpes virus, with cold sores breaking out without warning and always at the most inconvenient times, so need to know how to get rid of a cold sore. </strong></p>
<p>The last time I had cold sores was while taking a 2 month vacation in Denver, first I had a tingle and a swelling quickly followed by blisters, and for about 3 weeks I tried treatment and remedies that were suggested to me to get rid of the cold sore virus which is the herpes simplex virus, until by the time it was gone I felt something of an expert on how to get rid of a cold sore.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=119762&amp;BID=12176" target="_blank">Go straight to treatment</a></strong></p>
<p>One would think that after being in the nursing profession, I of all people would have the answer to the question of everyone’s lips, “How to get rid of a cold sore fast”?</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>How to Get Rid of a Cold Sore </strong><strong>Quick Tip</strong></h1>
<p>To prevent infection of the herpes simplex virus spreading to the rest of the family members, take drinks through a straw at home, just like you do when eating out, and dispose of the straw yourself after each drink. Prevention is always better than cure.</p>
<p>It’s just so unreal how many of us get these cold sores and fever blisters over and over again. During my search for remedies and treatment for cold sores, I read that more than 50% of us carry the Herpes Simplex Virus type 1, and this rises to 90% in the elderly. It’s present most or all of the time, just ready to flare up again when the right conditions arrive.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>How to Get Rid of a Cold Sore Quickly</strong></h2>
<p>Now a world traveller and getting prone to these pesky infections as I get older, I really want to know about remedies that really work, try for myself, and then be happy to recommend that treatment for your medicine cabinet, ready to attack the flare up as soon as it appears, for the best chance to get rid of a cold sore fast.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=119762&amp;BID=12176" target="_blank">Read what worked for me</a></strong></p>
<p>I realize not everyone can afford to buy these remedies to get rid of cold sores overnight, but if you can afford it, there is no medical questionnaire to complete, no doctor consultation fees or prescription to pay for, you can order it today and have it delivered overnight, and possibly be cold sore free tomorrow.</p>
<p>One thing is certain, a cold sore will not cure itself, treatment is essential to get rid of cold sores, and if left untreated, as well as cross infecting others, a cold sore can quickly lead to aphthous ulcers or a canker sore on tongue, mouth ulcers, fever blisters on lips or worse.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong>How to Get Rid of a Cold Sore Quickly</strong></h3>
<p>Remove the possibility of all that nasty stuff happening to you by either starting one of the home remedies suggested on this website, or buy a product such as what I bought on how to get rid of a cold sore overnight. <strong><a href="http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=119762&amp;BID=12176" target="_blank">Read more from their website</a></strong> on how to get rid of a cold sore.</p>

<strong>It’s strange, but the onset of a </strong><strong>nasty cold sore </strong><strong>always seem to come when you least need them, such as the night before an interview for a new job, or a hot night out with a new date.  Cold Sores are painful and embarrassing in these situations and if left untreated, a cold sore can develop into a blister or full blown herpes, as cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus, so damage limitation measures are needed to prevent further infection.</strong></p>
<p>Cold sores can be very infectious, and they are usually caused by being kissed by an infected close partner or relative, but any other form of contact such as sharing a drink from the same cup, or from sharing a toothbrush, any number of things like these can cause cold sores overnight.</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>How to get rid of a cold sore fast</strong></h1>
<p>Here is what you can do as a home cold sore treatment to prevent a prolonged cold sore problem:</p>
<ul>
<li>Try and discover the cause of the infection, which is the best remedy, then be wary in the future.</li>
<li>Discard your toothbrush and keep the new one in a dry place, not the bathroom, as moisture keeps the herpes virus alive and a blister can develop.</li>
<li>Do not lick the cold sore or touch it and keep it as clean and dry as possible.</li>
<li>Relieve the discomfort and pain with an analgesic.</li>
<li>An ice pack will also help, as the herpes virus does not like the cold.</li>
<li>Tannic acid in tea has antiviral properties, so you can press a wet tea bag on the cold sore every few minutes.</li>
</ul>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>More ideas on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">how to get rid of a cold sore</span> fast</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>Keep your hands clean and wash them often, avoiding contact with your eyes and genitals to stop the cold sore infection turning into blisters or genital herpes.</li>
<li>While outdoors, cover your lips to prevent exposure to the wind and sun.</li>
<li>Avoid eating peanuts and cashew nuts, chocolate, grain cereals and peas, avoid drinking cola and beers and don’t eat acidic foods like lemons or grapefruit.</li>
<li>The drug store or health food store will sell you Zinc gluconate which should help.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you really need to accelerate a cure and get rid of cold sores overnight, there is such a cure but it will mean spending money. Available now only over the internet is a 100% natural fever blister medication, an effective natural cold sore treatment formulated from the highest quality pure essential oils that is perfectly safe and causes no additional pain or irritation even on the worst outbreaks.</p>
