[quote=Anonymous]Valtrex works to prevent cold sores, but once u have one put calendula oil or oinment on it. The calendula oil will dry it and really speed up the healing time. It is also easier to apply foundation or concealer over a dried sore. However, if the cold sore is in the corner of your mouth, you may not want to dry out the sore with calendula oil because the movement of your mouth may crack open the sore and result in bleeding, so use the calendula ointment instead. Calendula can be bought at whole foods, vitamin shoppe or online. It also works great to heal any open wound or chapped lips/ skin. No household should be without calendula- it works wonders.
