A member asked:
Can someone tell me how long will it take to get rid of a cold sore if i put honey on it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cold sore: About the same amount of time that it would take without the honey. Fever blisters can be effectively treated with antiviral agents such as acyclovir. Both oral and topical formulations exist. Your doctor will prescribe the best combination for you.
