Does anyone know any cold sore remedies that make them go away really fast or heal faster?
My boyfriend had to work valentines day, so we rescheduled for tomorrow when he’s off work and of course I get a cold sore today. I know I can’t get it to go completely away by tomorrow but does anyone know of any ways to seriously speed recovery? Thank you!
Toothpaste is a good treatment for external applications (which will take a while to see the results), but you could also take L-Lysine (an Amino Acid) to help fight it internally, too. L-Lysine can help to get rid of it sooner, plus you can take it safely after you can’t see the sore anymore to make sure it’s gone.
Also, if you get cold sores on a regular basis, taking L-Lysine can actually help prevent them from coming up again. Oh, and stress tends to aggravate cold sores, so reducing stress may help as well. Good luck!

My protocal that I use and it pretty much is gone within 36 hours. Only a suggestion as everyone is different.
Tinctures of…..take in a bit of water 2-3x’s daily a dropper full each
Skullcap
Licorice rt
Yellow dock
Oregon Grape root
L-lysine capsules. My bottle is 400mg I double the dose and take them am and pm for 2 days.
Topically, if you have any lavender essential oil you can also dab that on.
If I had to choose only 1 thing form the above list it would be the L-lysine.
Had one last week and it as gone completely in 2 days.
you may want to postpone the date a few days just to be sure.
