    if you can make a turmeric mixture, apply up to 4-5x a day. just take the root or powder, mix in a little warm water and apply. you could also try neem oil, or hydrogen peroxide.

    high doses of vitamin c often help fight it off. i use vitamin e oil to soothe and heal faster. Cold sores often come from a reaction to stress or extreme environments ( cold, wind, heat ).

    Good suggestions Ceanna, from my own experience, avoiding sweets and cold damp foods like excess fruit helps a lot.
