Virasolve Cold Sore Cream Questions

Peony6y

I was using a store bought brand but realised it was out of date, so after 2 or 3 days I went and bought Virasolve. After two days using it the pain and swelling is worse. The originally crusty sores now look like wet oozie burns. If I stop using it and try the course of tablets (that chemist told me were for when a cold sore first stats) will that help, or should I just switch to another cream?

Please someone help. I've got cold sores on both sides of my mouth, first time I've got them. I started using Virasolve two days ago, so today is my third day! Day one it was a miracle and worked great, now I'm still using it and I have insane burning sensations and it seems as tho anorher blister has formed even though I've been using the cream. Someone who has used it before help please????

Hi I had a cold sore that doubled in size using that stuff so I stop straight away and a friend told me about a cold sore balm called tinderbox, it worked a treat. Stings like hell when u apply it but definitely worth it. You can buy it from health shops. Good luck
