Let’s repeat it one more time: Abreva, Zovirax, Acyclovir or ANY cold sore cream will NOT treat your cold sores. It’s just a waste of money. #coldsores #herpesawareness #healthtips
Here is how I take care of cold sores!
I’m not stoked that I have one literally the day before I return to work from maternity leave, and I’m especially not stoked that I’m not allowed to use Abreva while I’m breastfeeding.
What a cold sore is and why it happens isn’t my area of expertise, but it is a wound, and I ended up getting a cold sore in school while learning about wound care, so I’ve applied that knowledge to the sores ever since and it really quickens the healing process while making it less scabbed over (and less embarrassing for me).
1. First, clean the wound with soapy water.
2. Apply Abreva, or an ointment that helps the wound’s healing process.
3. Add in moisture by patting a simple moisturizer on top (I use CeraVe).
4. Seal in the wound with a hydrocolloid bandage or an occlusive like petroleum jelly (vaseline or aquaphor work).
You can use the above steps for other wounds as well, unless they’re incredibly serious, then you should see a doctor. Maybe you’ll end up with a PT or PTA helping to dress the wound (let’s hope it never gets that bad though lol).
Save this or share it with a friend who struggles!
Cold sore are not fun, and I will be hiding my face with a mask for the next few weeks, but luckily they do go away eventually.
Good luck 🖤

Cold Sore Remedy!
I swear this works like a charm! It’s a high frequency wand - I used to rely on lysine, Abreva, tea tree oil, ice…. EVERYTHING!
But nothing sped up healing like this 👇
The high frequency wand creates a tiny electrical current that reacts with the oxygen in the air = this produces ozone.
That ozone is antimicrobial = it helps kill bacteria and reduce inflammation fast!!! 💨
You can find it on Amazon - My exact one I bought over 5 years ago is no longer available but i've linked another option - My wellness faves are in my bio link!
It’s been a game-changer for my high sun exposure days!
💎Use it at the first tingle - but honestly this time I didn’t since I was traveling & it still is super effective!
Have you ever tried this?

Canker sores can be treated with pain relieving ointments and mouth rinses. You should also avoid irritants like like spicy and acidic foods.
Cold sores can potentially be treated with anti-viral medications. Just like canker sores though, pain relievers and avoiding triggers that irritate the area decrease discomfort.
Any tips from my dental friends for pain relief and oral hygiene?
