Home Remedies For Fever Blisters
from:Fever blisters or cold sores are small red blisters that usually
appear on the lips and outer edges of the mouth. They often
display a clear liquid and form scabs after a few days. They are
caused by herpes virus that becomes active when something
triggers them. There is no cure for cold sores, but there are
remedies that will reduce the severity and frequency. They
appear after colds, fever, exposure to sun and stress during
menstruation.
Foods that contain chocolate, peanuts and other nuts, grains,
peas, seeds, oatmeal and whole-wheat products should be cut out
or reduced from the diet. Cold sore is preceded by tingling,
burning or itching sensation, fever, and enlargement of lymph
nodes close to the sores and a general feeling of malaise.
-When you feel the tingling, burning or itching sensation, rub
juice from aloe plant on the affected area. Dab of aloe gel is
effective too. Aloe will begin the healing process immediately
and not allow the sore to grow.
-Apply cornstarch paste to the affected area.
-Mix a drop or two of grapefruit seed extract either with aloe
or olive oil and dab it on the sore.
-Rub ice cube on the sore for 10 minutes every hour at the onset
of fever blisters. It will prevent the movement of the virus to
the skin.
-Extract of lemon balm reduces the symptoms and speeds up the
healing process.
-Combine equal parts of tinctures of echinacea, calendula, oats,
burdock, and lomatium. Take ½ tsp four to fives time a day to
soothe the inflamed tissue, remove the toxins from the body and
kill the viruses and bacteria.
-Topical application of extract of mint will speed the healing
of the blister.
-Drink several cups of sage tea with a dash of powdered ginger
till the blisters are not cleared up.
-Steep an ordinary tea bag in boiling water, cool it and then
apply to the blister. The blister should disappear within few
days.
-Vaseline will help to moisturize and soften blisters to prevent
them from cracking and bleeding.
-Dab a drop or two of St. John's Wort essential oil. It not only
soothes, but reduces the pain and speeds up the healing process.
-Apply Witch Hazel on sores.
-Put some common salt on your moistened index finger and press
it on to the sore for a minute twice a day for 2-3 days.
-Apply spirit of camphor on the sore.
