Want some remedies for fever blisters?  Those annoying little lesions that always seem to pop up after you pick up a cold are aptly named, but did you know that they are essentially the same thing as cold sores?  Yup, shocking, but they are the same thing, they are both caused by the herpes simplex 1 virus, fever blisters is just a nicer way of saying it.  So now that we got that understanding, what can we do to help get rid of the cold sores?  Plenty, here, try these solutions out:

1.     The Cookie Solution

Out of all the remedies for fever blisters, this is the only one that when done winds up smelling like a cookie.  What you’re going to do is boil some water and then add some garlic, olive oil, salt, apple cider vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice and some sugar.  The sugar is what gives it all the cookie smell.  Once this solution has been mixed up good, add some witch hazel to the mix as well.  Next, take a Q-Tip, dip it in and apply it directly to the fever blister.  By the way, this is not meant to be eaten :)

2.     Supplement With Calcium

Another solution  for fever blisters is to take in some additional calcium.  Just pick up some calcium supplmenets and take 500-1000mg of it daily.

3.     Ice The Area

Another very simple remedy is to use ice to arrest the swelling and spread of the virus.  Keep the ice on the lip long enough for it to go numb.  You can also try filling up a ziplock bag and putting that on.

Now these remedies for fever blisters will help, however they will not be enough to manage the sores quickly and keep them from returning.  For a more effective treatment, you’ll need to look at something like Herpeset.  That product works fast because it is absorbed directly into the bloodstream when sprayed under the tongue.  You can click here to learn more about how it works.

Need some cold sores remedies to handle your recent outbreak?  If cold sores are getting you down, realize that you’re not alone, this issue affects 20% of us, many of whom are actually born with it.  Now if you want to work at clearing this up and quick, I’ve compiled a list of home remedies for you to try out.  Give them a shot and see which works best:

1.     Vinegar + Asprin + Hemorrhoid Cream

This is one of the better cold sores remedies as it not only helps heal the cold sore, but it gets rid of the pain as well.  What you need to do is crush up an asprin and mix that in with vinegar and the hemorrhoid cream to form a paste.  With that, apply it directly to the affected area, the end result should be a reduction in the size of the sore and faster healing of the lesion.

2.     Vaseline

Another home remedy to try out is finding some Vaseline or petroleum jelly to use on the cold sore.  What you want to do is keep the sore covered with this for as long as possible.  I’m not quite sure how it works, but this does make the blister less likely to crack and bleed and speeds up the healing process.

3.     Apple Cider Vinegar

This is another solution which will work to dry out your sores.  Just apply a dab of apple cider vinegar to your cold sore, it’s an old Amish cure.

Now if you’re looking for more powerful cold sores remedies that will really take your mind off your herpes, you’ll need to check out a different league of solutions.  One of the better solutions out there is Herpeset, it’s a spray that is immediately absorbed into the bloodstream when used under the tongue.  This also does a good job of keeping sores from popping up again.  Click here to learn more about it.
