How long do those Cold sores in you mouth last and how can you get rid of them?


How long do those Cold sores in you mouth last and how can you get rid of them?

you cannot get rid of cold sores, you can try to prevent them. Its due to stress & its difficult in now a days to get rid of stress. It will take a week to 10 days to naturally go away & no medication will help for it to go quickly. You can prevent it from getting infected by taking antibiotics & applying antiseptic cream & taking B complex.

Cold sores can last up to one week to two weeks. They are annoying and painful. There are plenty of things that can cause them such as bacterial,viral of fungal infections. Like even having a broken tooth. Fatigue,stress or allergies can increase the likelihood of a canker sore. These things are not contagious. Use a mouth rinse over the counter. or go to a health store they can help with these things as well to help you not hurt so much when healing. Good Luck

They are actually from the Herpies Virus and there is no cure for any virus. The sores will heal in a matter of a week or so but the virus will always be there in a dormant stage; probably to return again and again due to things like stress, chocolate, and probably others so do your homework.

A cold sore lasts for about a week to 10 days. There is no over-the-counter medication or home remedy that cures cold sores. Only time will take care of that. But there is a good prescription medication for cold sores. It will make them go away much faster, and as a result of taking this medication you will have far fewer outbreaks of cold sores.

The absolute best treatment for cold sores is a prescription medication in pill form called Valtrex. It was intended for genital herpes, but cold sores are caused by the same family of viruses, and Valtrex stops colds sores in their tracks. None of the other treatments come close to the effectiveness of Valtrex, not the ointment Zovirax, and certainly not Abreva or anything else. Ask your doctor about it to see if you would be a good candidate for this medication. My doctor prescribed it for me for cold sores about five years ago and after taking it only a couple of times I hardly ever get a cold sore any more, and before Valtrex I was having several attacks a year. On the rare occasions that I do get one now, it is gone almost immediately when I take the medication - in about a day. In the meantime, here are a few informative links.

they say 12 days.... or nine im not sure.... i mix up these things alot but getting a colsore cream makes it go away faster and if you put it on a soon as you feel a tingle them it might never fully.....grow or however you put it, aply every four hours I think it says on them....
you can use TCP or any antseptic stuff or perfume too but the sting!!!! still helps and after the sting is gone it actually feels less gross and sore

It depends, usually only a few days, at the most a week.
