A medical student friend of mine was a part of the clinical trial research for a new, botanical-based over-the-counter topical gel product for relief and treatment of cold sores and fever blisters. In reading her summary and viewing the website www.reliefblue.com — it seems like very sound option for those suffering from this painful and contageous problem. I have no affiliation or gain from this post. I’m just sharing.
From their website:
“Relief Blue is for people who suffer from cold sores and fever blisters.It is not for people who suffer from canker sores. Canker sores are a different problem than cold sores. Canker sores are caused either by a bacteria, or by a minor trauma as from biting the inside of your mouth accidentally.Cold sores and fever blisters are caused by the herpes simplex virus which comes to the surface of the skin in painful eruptions in order to multiply, replicate, and continue living on inside of the host year after year. Unless something is done to change this.”
