cold sores?!?

[YDOC_hope]

Since I have been pregnant I have been getting cold sores like crazy. Is anyone else having this problem? What do I do?

valacyclovir if for prevention. You take it every day and then they won't come back.

I for got to mention. Between using the oil use lip balm. It can but not always dry you lips.

Acyclovier is good to. But found tea tree oil took care of them a lot faster. Everyone is diff tho.

Ask your OB for valacyclovir. Mine said it is safe to take during pregnancy.

Nice ima try th tea tree oil. N there's not rlly sun here. Its winter -30.

I get them all the time. What works wonders for me since I'm not big with medication now that I pregnant is tea tree oil. You can buy it at gnc or any vitamin shop. It helps kill the pain and help them heal. It works faster than the medicine does in my opinion...
