I bite it until it starts to bleed..a lot. One time I couldn't stop the bleeding for 15 minutes. Its so strange but I like to squeeze the blood out of my cut and just watch it flow out. I also kinda enjoy the way it tastes. I am so... show more I often bite my inner bottom lip and chew on it till I tear a huge hole in it.
Cold sores and fever blisters are painful, fluid-filled blisters on or near the lips caused by a virus called herpes simplex type 1. Cold sores are contagious and spread by touch. An over-the-counter medicine called docosanol (brand name AbrevaÂ®) may help cold sores heal faster and reduce symptoms.
The Sooner, the Better. A typical cold sore outbreak can last as long as seven to ten days. The sooner you begin using ABREVA, the more effective the medicine will be. So for best results, use ABREVA at the very start of the cold sore - when you feel the first sign of the tingle, redness, bump or itch. ABREVA is different from other over-the-counter cold sore products. Only ABREVA contains 10% docosanol, which helps to shorten the healing time of cold sores and the duration of symptoms including tingling, pain, itching and burning.
