Blister on lip: This might be either a cold sore, a canker sore ( aphthous ulcer), or a mucocele (a mucus-filled blister). Different causes and different treatments. The canker sore and the cold sore will heal in 7-14 days. See you dentist to determine what has caused the sore, and he can therefore suggest a treatment to help alleviate any discomfort.

Some tips: Melissa officinalis or lemon balm (cream) expedites healing of cold sores. It can reduce healing time by half. Studies also show that regular use can help v recurrences. Brief supplementation with lysine 1, 000mg orally three times a day at the onset, can also hasten healing. Your physician can prescribe oral valtrex (valacyclovir).
