fever blisters on mouthFever blisters or also known as cold sores are suffered by millions of Americans yearly. Even though this is an unimpressive occurrence, you may feel shy about your fever blisters and try to avoid them. Sad to say that the virus that cause fever blisters cannot be cured. This means that you have to be prepared with effective fever blister home remedies and information about when to consult a doctor.

Before starting this article, what are fever blisters? They are actually caused by HSV1 or herpes simplex virus type 1 and they can develop on the lips and around the mouth. Fever blisters are transmitted to other individual when the clear liquid oozes from cold sores come in contact with him or her. It can be spread by sharing cooking utensils, drinking glasses, and even as benign as parent giving the baby a kiss on the cheek.

Those who experience fever blisters can develop sores few times a year. Cold sores are very painful and unsightly. Therefore, you need good tips regarding how you can prevent them and how to make them disappear.

Cold Sores Home Remedies

You should avoid stressful situations and over eating of nuts and spicy foods. You should also avoid drinking too much alcohol. This does not imply that you cannot ever enjoy a glass of wine or eating your favorite Indian dish. It means that you should do them in moderation. While these items do not cause outbreaks, they have been proven as triggers that can result to outbreaks.

Put alcohol on the blisters. When you apply Isopropyl alcohol directly on the blisters, it helps to destroy the virus when it tries to spread. By putting alcohol, you are limiting how big the sores can get and speeding the process of crusting them and heal.

Take Lysine supplement. Lysine is an amino acid that is identical to Arginine, a building block that HSV uses to spread itself. When the virus invades a healthy cell, it forces it to turn into a small HSV factory, producing millions of copies of it. By taking 2000 – 6000 mg of Lysine daily, you efficiently flood your body with unusable building block. The body receives a signal to stop generating Arginine until it runs out of Lysine. The HSV cannot replicate itself using Lysine.

These are just some ways on how you can effectively manage fever blisters and speed up the healing process. By applying these tips, you can turn a one to two week ordeal into few days.
