Oh dear thats a long old time to have one.Mine can last up to 6 wks.With the alovera if u keep applying it even b4 it splits (i can tell now when im about to get one a little red dot appears and its very tender) so i rub it on from as soon as i notice one,ive one at the min the size of two pin heads i am rubbibg it in constantly and it hasn got a chance to get any bigger lets c how long it lasts i got it on sat so thats 4days ago hope it helps u but u really need to apply it every hr :-)

I know crushing an Aloe Vera leaf & rubbing the juice onto spots & coldsores works speeding up healing but have never thought to try it on other ailments to date. Shall now give it a go & see ;)

Ive not tried that before ! thanks for sharing :)
