Treating fever blisters shouldn't be a daunting task. Fever blisters are also known as cold sores, and are a form of oral herpes. Millions of people across the world unfortunately have these infections regularly.


As of today, there is no vaccine to prevent oral herpes cold sores from afflicting you. Nor is there an absolute cure. Fever blisters cannot be cured so that they never come back. However, the duration of their stay can be minimized.

Cold Sore Remedies


The first thing you should know is that the bacteria within the cold sore can be killed. This can help your skin begin to heal sooner than it would take for your body to ward it off naturally.


You may try using tea tree oil as cold sores treatment. Tea tree is well known for its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. However, it will dry out your skin so proper moisturizing will be needed.


Hydrogen peroxide is another item you may have in your medicine cabinet that can help. Dip a Q Tip into the bottle and apply to the fever blister twice per day, following up with a moisturizer.


You can even consider trading off using tea tree oil and hydrogen peroxide as fever blister home remedies. If you are in need of a natural moisturizer, olive oil works well and will promote healing.
