What is the quickest and most effective way to get rid of a cold sore?

Remedy: I can't say this is the 'fastest" or "most effective" treatment. However it may half the time for healing. Melissa officinalis or lemon balm (cream) has been shown in european studies to help expedite healing of cold sores.
