âI love that Iâve had the opportunity to open thousands of peopleâs eyes to the ripple effect that one person can have on another. One of the absolute best things an activist can do is train new activists, and working with Grassroots has allowed me to do that on a daily basis.
Cold sores are caused by a Herpes Virus (HSV-I not the genital variety HSV-II). Abreva is a topical medication that can help fight and speed healing of cold sores. Abreva is over the counter in the USA. Neosporin will not keep the virus from spreading but could help it from becoming secondarily infected with bacteria. Neosporin contains 3 antibiotics: Neomycin, Bacitracin and Polymyxin.
Answer: Yes, but thereâs a better option. Careful when applying Neosporin on your dogâs cuts because thereâs a strong possibility they may ingest some of it. The fact is that dogs love to lick at their cuts and wounds and Neosporin isnât supposed to be consumed. Letâs face it, even if you do bandage over the affected area, you canât watch your dog all the time. They are notorious for picking at such bandages which presents a problem.
