I have the mother of all cold sores after a flu left me very run-down.
Its on the upper lip and a monster !! I would say approx 1cm across.
I felt it coming on and tried all the usual expensive creams, with zero effect as usual (what a con those creams are).
I think I am now over the worst, but what I need is advice on the best way to get it to heal quickest.
It is in that cracking/sore/weeping state now. Any stretching of it just causes it to bleed again. Its very tender.
I have tried Vaseline but it seems to just sit on the upper lip and congel into a big yellow mush after a few hours.
Any advice?
