How to Treat a Cold Sore

Cold sores are painful blisters that pop up around your lips or mouth—once you've had one, you know how quickly they can derail your day. Just a single sore can count as an outbreak, but multiple sores are common, especially during your first outbreak.

Prescription antivirals can help when started within 24 to 48 hours of your first symptoms, ideally at the first sign of tingling. A provider can review whether one is appropriate for you.

Depending on clinical approval, we may also provide a prescription to keep on hand, so the next time a cold sore flares up, you're ready.

Cold Sore Symptoms

  • Painful blisters on the mouth, lips, nose, or throat
  • Fever and body aches (similar to flu symptoms) at the first outbreak
  • Mouth and throat pain
  • Blisters that eventually pop and scab over
  • Cold sore symptoms last about 12 days
  • Swelling in the neck
Cold sore treatment, on your schedule

Manage cold sores with prescription antivirals reviewed by a licensed provider, which can help shorten an outbreak when started early. Bye-bye in-person waiting room.
