Cold sores I am going to my friend's birthday party in 3 days. My other friend has a cold sore and today I got this cut on my lower lip and I don't know how it got there. My friend said that when she first got her cold sore, it started out as a cut. Sometimes I get cuts on my lips and hands when it starts getting cold. If i actually have a coldsore, does anybody know how to get rid of it before the party?

There is medicine you can buy at a drug store that kills it. ]
Well for now I would keep it clean and don't touch it too much... If it is (or isn't) a cold sore, use carmex on it!! i have a friend who lives off this stuff!!! she swears by it.. it'll definitely do the trick! you can find it pretty much in any drugstore...
Hope I helped!

If u have any coverup just use it. It will hide the cut/cold sore. ]
Aww, don't worry at all. There are a lot of quick fixes for this. Try:
-Dipping a cotton ball or the end of a Q-Tip in peroxide and rubbing it gently over the cut. (Don't swallow peroxide)
-Avoid accidy foods and drinks (ie: orange juive, tomatoes, etc)
There are several over the counter methods as well:
-Blistex
-OraGel
-Abreeva
I would say either of those 3 give you the best results..Abreeva and Oragel probably do it the quickest, but Blistex is good for long term protection.
All of the above mentioned are available at your local drugstore. Feel better! :) ]
Wait a few hours to see if it becomes a coldsore. if its a coldsroe, get Abreva! it works sooo good and its pretty expensive but it works ]
