Lip sores are often referred to as cold sores or fever blisters and are a result of the herpes simplex type 1 virus. There are two types of herpes simplex virus. The first is herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1), which can cause cold sores on or around the mouth in most cases . A person who has the second type of herpes virus (HSV2) may primarily experience genital herpes. Herpes simplex type 2 is a sexually transmitted disease that results in painful blisters in the genital area.

Herpes simplex virus type 1 is among the most common viruses known to medical science. It has been suggested that those susceptible to cold sores are likely experiencing a weakened immune system as a result of illness. These sores typically appear as fluid filled pustules in and around the lips and surrounding mouth tissue. The life of a cold sore ranges from 10 - 14 days. It should be noted that there is not a cure for cold sores but there is much that can be done to ease the discomfort of the condition while waiting for nature to take its course.

There are several treatment options available to cold sore sufferers including prescription medications and over the counter (OTC) topical treatments. Many people with cold sores seek natural treatments in order to avoid prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs that may have unpleasant side effects. Here’s an all-natural treatment that has been proven to cure cold sores quickly: Cold Sore Freedom in 3 Days.

It is advised that you see a physician to have any lip sores evaluated to determine the exact nature of the lesion and to prescribe an effective course of treatment. Once it has been determined that the sore is indeed a cold sore, one or more of the following treatment options should prove useful in healing the sore:

1. Prescription medications: These medications are prescribed for those individuals for whom over-the-counter treatments do not effectively manage the pain and discomfort of the cold sore. Prescription medications promote healing and may shorten the life of the cold sore by up to 12 hours. These medications are most effective when treatment is implemented at the onset of an outbreak.
2. Over the counter topical treatments: There are three classes of OTC medications for the treatment of cold sores.
lip sores
* The fist class essentially provides pain management by working to alleviate the burning and itching associated with cold sores. These medications relieve pain as a result of the numbing aspects of ingredients such as phenol, lidocaine, benzyl alcohol and camphor.
* The second category works to inhibit growth of sores that are beginning to form, and also promote healing. This category of treatments will list antibacterial properties that prevent further infections from occurring.
* The final category of OTC cold sore treatments is preventive in nature and blocks the virus' ability to create cold sores. These treatments are rich in antiviral ingredients such as zinc, phenol, tannic acid and lysine.
3. Natural remedies: Several natural or home remedies have been suggested to be useful in the management of cold sores. One suggested remedy is to apply ice to the affected area for a few minutes several times each day. Moisturizing the affected area with aloe vera may soften scabs making them less susceptible to cracking and bleeding. A warm compress made from a tea bag is often soothing to cold sore sufferers when used 30 minutes per day. It is also advisable to eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables because they contain key vitamins, iron, and zinc, which are important building blocks for a healthy immune system.

Those prone to cold sores may find that avoiding exposure to UV rays and reducing stress are helpful in preventing cold sore outbreaks. The virus that causes cold sores is contagious and there are several vital steps that can be taken to control the spread of virus.

* Exercise proper hand washing techniques.
* Do not share personal hygiene items.
* Avoid direct skin-to-skin contact of the affected area or saliva with others.
* Finally, avoid picking at the sores as this creates not only an open environment for bacterial infection, but also a means of transmitting the virus to other areas of the body including the eyes, nose, chin, and fingers.
