Question 7

how to get rid of a fever blister?

Accepted Answer

Pallative Measures: What most people call a fever blister is herpes simplex i - a virus that has to run it's course of 7-14 days. Your dentist or md can give you meds. To take that may help if it just came on but generally when we see them all we can do is help with the discomfort and help you prevent them coming on again. You still should see someone to be sure it is what you think it is if this is the first time.

Question 8

how to get rid of a fever blister in mouth?

Accepted Answer

Intra-oral or lip?: My patients often use "fever blister" for all ulcers or erosions that occur in the mouth or on the lips.  They are different.  On the lips are typically herpes simplex virus type 1, treated with oral acyclovir.  In the mouth, the ulcer is called aphthous ulcer, which we treat with a topical steroid.  Please see your doctor for an evaluation.

Question 9

how to get rid of a fever, mild headache, and sore throat?

Accepted Answer

Treat symptoms: Sounds as if you have a mild viral infection, and bed rest, fluids, Aspirin or Acetaminophen (tylenol, etc.) may help.  If things get worse see your doctor because a more serious problem may be developing.  Have you been around others with similar symptoms?  Do you have children, are they in day care?  Hope you get better and feel well soon.
