[quote=Anonymous]Best practices are to throw out any cosmetics, balms, etc. used immediately before the outbreak and definitely during, change your toothbrush, and wash any cloth that might've come in contact with the sore (washcloths) on hot with a disinfectant. You can take valacyclovir at the first symptom of an outbreak (for me, that's the weird burning tingle on my lip) and dramatically shorten the duration or even prevent a sore entirely. I've also noticed that the meds reduce the frequency of my cold sores, as does limiting sugar and stress.[/quote]
