What are cold sores? | Patient Explainers

About 1 in 5 people in the UK have recurring cold sores. Cold sores usually resolve on their own without treatment in 7-10 days. Antiviral creams may help to reduce the severity of symptoms and are most effective the earlier they are used when a cold sore is starting to develop.

I used to get cold sores every year during the influenza season, until I made a real effort to stop eating food rich with refined sugar.

I agree with the majority of what's being explained. But I must confess it was Jeno Thorsdak (googl him), that finally did it for me. 4 Days might sound like luck, however, you just must test it to verify that it works for you personally too!
