Tuesday, March 18th, 2008
Home remedies for cold sores are slowly gaining popularity among those seeking relief from this unpleasant infection. Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus. They usually appear as small but painful fluid filled blisters that are reddish or purple in color. They normally appear one at a time or in little bunches on the outer edge of the lip causing discomfort and pain for 2-3 days. The usual time frame of healing is 10-14 days. Cold sores are contagious and once we are infected the virus is with us for life. Infact, this infection is so common that about 90 percent of the population in the United States get infected by it, although many may never have any symptoms or mild ones at the most.
