A member asked:
I keep getting cold sores. how do i minimize them without prescription medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oral herpes outbreaks (cold sores" usually occur only a few times a year. If your herpes has not been professionally diagnosed and confirmed, that's your next step. Once confirmed, effective prescription treatments are available to either quickly treat each episode (it only takes one dose by mouth); or in some cases to prevent outbreaks. There is no effective non prescription treatment in the US.
