I use zinc ointment for cold sores/ lip herpes. Just smear a fingertip of the ointment over the sore.

This works best if you do it when that tingling is first felt.

I used to get ferocious cold sores when I was young. A nurse at my university told me to try this-- and I've only had about 2 eruptions in over 55 years.

I am so truly thankful to that kind lady-- she literally saved my life- I was suicidal at that point, and the doctor was absolutely useless.

I have passed this on to so many young people -- it is so simple and easy, but not widely known.

All the best for you.💚

hi junny, I get those sores too, ones in the mouth are most painful. I found Biotene mouthwash very soothing. Sometimes I buy the toothpaste too. Someone told me it was the sodium laurel sufate in most toothpastes. I was getting them in my mouth constantly until I switched to biotene tpaste and for soothing relief with biotene mouthwash. My daughter has the same problem. That’s all I can offer, if you can find it where you live.

Aptholus ulcers in the mouth are indicative of several autoimmune diseases. You may want it biopsied. If it isn't a cold sore, it is something else. Certainly you would have some history if cold sore. I know how bad they hurt. I am an example at a University for dentists to learn more about these issues. My dentist caught my first diagnosis of something called Behcets. A decade later, I received a formal diagnosis.
