I hate getting those. So painful and embaressing! Whenever I get one i put salt on it. It stings a little but the salt dries it up and so it goes away faster. Ive always noticed the more you put chapstick or oitment on it the bigger it gets so I just try to keep my lips dry..

I don't see why not . Actually there's a chapstick called herpecin or something really close to that for cold sores I'd just use that . Ask your doctor to know for sure if medicine is okay but that chapstick is good to use .
