Well, in addition to being unsightly, confidence-killers, these painful and annoying tiny blisters are caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). But don’t worry, HSV-1 is different from the virus that causes genital herpes, which is herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2). In fact, almost 70% of people under age 50 have HSV-1. Fortunately, most are asymptomatic and will never have an outbreak. HSV-1 is highly contagious, and in most cases latches its awful self to you during infancy or childhood via a family member or friend. Nice, right?

Cold sores are highly triggered things. It doesn’t take much out of the ordinary for one to come on the scene. Some triggers include:
• Stress which weakens the immune system
• Sun exposure which damages skin
• Winter weather that can dry out lips
• Fever, cold or flu which weakens the immune system
• Hormonal changes that weaken the immune system
You can use Herpecin L Everyday Protection on your lips throughout the day to help relieve and protect against some of these common cold sore triggers.*
Simply swipe Herpecin L on your lips throughout the day to help relieve and protect against common cold sore triggers.
Generally, they overstay their welcome at an average of 8-14 days, but (gasp) can last longer in some cases. The key to getting it gone and keeping it from becoming overly crusty is moisture, moisture, moisture. But, if you happen to get a cold sore, Herpecin L Pain Relief instantly numbs the pain and itch, helps prevent painful cracking, and protects against infection.
Cold sore phases:
Prodrome: tingling, itching, burning, numbness or pain on the lip or mouth area
Macule: area becomes red in reaction to the virus
Papule: small, red bumps form and throbbing pain begins
Vesicle: colorless, fluid-filled blisters start to develop
Postule: clear liquid becomes yellow and pus forms
Crust: a yellow crust forms on the affected area
Scabbing: area dries out and a reddish-brown scab forms; the area may itch and burn
Healing: scab falls off and pain disappears; may be residual swelling or dry flaking
