Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've dealt with the 1-2x per year cold sore for years now. They're awful, but you probably already know that if you're reading this. I admit I haven't tried a lot of cures because the only thing I'd heard of that really works is prescription medication and I never remember to ask my doctor. Fast forward to last weekend when I felt a cold sore coming on. I don't get the tingling sensation everyone talks about, I just end up with soreness on my lip and that's the sign that something's wrong. By that time I know I'm hours hours away from dealing with the full symptoms. Well I did some quick research on Amazon this time and found out about Abreva and I picked it up at Wal-Mart - a bit more expensive than Amazon, but I had it in 20 minutes. I proceeded to apply it every one to two hours the first day. I was pleased to find that by the next morning the usual symptoms - blistering, scabbing, etc - had been largely avoided. I applied several times the second day. By this morning (third day), I was just left with some discomfort from where the broken skin was already healing, but it never became a full-blown cold sore. Instead of two weeks of being self-conscious and in serious discomfort, I just had a day or two of minor discomfort. Totally worth it. The packaging and most reviews will tell you to apply this as soon as you know a cold sore is forming, which I agree with. I'm not sure how the effectiveness is reduced by waiting too long and I have no intention of finding out! Anyway, give it a try.
