I have used ABREVA, it is very expensive, about 15 dlls but I think is good, also try to use any medication when u start feeling the blister, because if u star using now, it wont help much, also if you go to a walgreens they have a section where u can find mexican products , try vitacilina, it is not expensive and will help your lip heal fast

Ouch, I guess you could if you wanted, just make sure it's ready to come off so you don't get a scar or an infection. And here's some invaluable advice for the future--lavender oil! It works better to make a cold sore disappear than anything I've ever heard of, sometimes in a few hours or at least a day.

a fever blister is a form of herpes simplex. Not saying anything gross (it is the truth). It is highly contagious the wk. before it comes the week or so of and the week after. You can make it come back by using carmex, lipstick etc. that you previously used with the cold sore. Do not ever pop it not only will it spread, but it can scar.

You really should go to a dr asap,,this could turn in a staff infection very easily and believe me you do not want something like that so close to your privates.  I had something that sounds very similar to what I had and it turned out to be staff.  Does it feel warm or feverish in anyway??

If its your "first" herpes blister, then it could last up to 2 months.  If its just a "regular" blister, then just a few days.  Your doctor can give you a "silver" treatment to cut your time way down if its Herpes (cutting it by half or more).  And if its not, you can get a treatment anyways to get rid of it with anti-biotics or something similar.\n\nPictures\nhttp://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?p=herpes&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&ei=UTF-8&fr2=tab-web

Fever blisters are caused by the herpes simplex 1 virus. There are prescriptions that limit it's duration. Stress tends to bring about outbreaks. Some people use Carmex for comfort because the prescription medications are expensive. You can try other the counter Abreva. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon,

apply almost unbearably hot compresses for 15 Min's four times per day.  cover with bandage with antibiotic ointment in between compresses.  If red irritation gets bigger then 50 cent piece...time to see doc.

Run cold water over it until it stops burning.\n\nDo not put anything greasy on it (vaseline, neosporin, butter, etc.) because it will suffocate the burn and may make it worse.\n\nLeave it uncovered, and if a blister forms, do NOT pop it.  The blister is there to protect the damaged skin.\n\nIf it is larger than a quarter, seek professional medical help.

If it does not bother you to walk on then dont pop. \n\nIf it does bother you to walk on rub the blister with alcohol and rub a needle with alcohol. Make a small hole and let drain. Then cover the blister with a bandage.

Use antibiotic ointment around the raw area before you go to bed, it will moisten it and help it heal faster, good luck, I hope you feel better :)

Get extra rest. Bed rest can help you feel better. It will also help you avoid spreading the virus to others. \nDrink plenty of fluids to replace those lost from fever. Fluids also ease a scratchy throat and keep nasal mucus thin. Hot tea with lemon, water, fruit juice, and soup are all good choices. \nIf fever is uncomfortable, take acetaminophen or ibuprofen to lower it. You may also sponge your body with lukewarm water to reduce fever. Do not use cold water or ice. Lowering the fever will not make your symptoms go away faster, but it may make you more comfortable. \nTo relieve body aches and headache, take aspirin, acetaminophen, or ibuprofen. Do not take aspirin if you are younger than 20 unless your doctor tells you to do so. Also, aspirin and ibuprofen can upset your stomach, while acetaminophen does not. \nTry a decongestant or nasal spray if your main symptom is a stuffy nose. Look for a single-ingredient decongestant that contains phenylephrine. If nasal drainage is thick, a decongestant that contains guaifenesin may help keep it thin and draining. Do not use medicated nasal sprays or drops more often than directed and not for longer than 3 days. \nBreathe moist air from a hot shower or from a sink filled with hot water to help clear a stuffy nose. \nAvoid antihistamines. They do not treat flu symptoms and may make nasal drainage thicker. \nIf the skin around your nose and lips becomes sore from repeated rubbing with tissues, apply a bit of petroleum jelly to the area. Using disposable tissues that contain lotion also may help. \nUse cough drops or plain, hard candy to help ease coughing. \nTake a nonprescription cough medicine that contains dextromethorphan if you develop a dry, hacking cough. Some products contain a high percentage of alcohol. Use them with caution. \nElevate your head at night with an extra pillow if coughing keeps you awake. \nAvoid smoking and breathing secondhand smoke. This is good advice any time, but it is especially important when you have a respiratory infection like a cold or the flu.

the best thing to use is Campho Phenique. It works fast on fever blisters and canker sores.

Well, I don't know the severity of your sunburn...but let me tell you that when I was in high school, I had gotten a sunburn so bad that it was considered a very bad 2nd degree.  I was in misery and had to go to the doctor to get some special cream to put on it.  So if it is that bad please go to the doctor immediately.  Also, small blisters can turn into really big blisters overnight.  So keep a good watch on your skin for blisters.  Also, do not shower in very warm water while you are burnt, as this will worsen the burn as well as the pain.  I also recommend that you use PhysoHex or PhysoDerm soap on the area instead of regular soap when you wash.  There are many types of lotions and sprays out there that help with the pain such as solarcaine.  Aloe is very good for putting the hydration back into the skin, but make sure your skin is dry before applying as wetness on top of the skin with the aloe over it makes blistering worse.\n\nBest of luck to you!!

I always thought to leave a blister alone, but have recently read to lance the blister.\nSterizlize a needle with rubbing alcohol.  Poke two holes in teh blister's perimeter.  One at six o'clock and another at 12 o'clock.\nUse a cotton ball and gently apply pressure to drain it.\nCheck the blister 8 hours later to be sure it's fully drained.  If not, repeat the procedure.

You are better USING ICE CUBES on your sores for 20 minutes repeat every 2 hours..\n\nalso its possible if you feel a new sore coming to stop it from erupting..at a early stage one day and your sore is gone..\n\n(Withe the ice cube,(cold and water) you are fooling the skin to believe taht the virus causing the eruption is gone

Sounds as if you have a bad case of flu or some other virus. Drink lots of liquids, hot honey and lemon is good, take aspirin and get plenty of sleep. If you're not better within 48 hours go back to the doctor, or if you get eyes that hurt in the light/headache or a rash go back to the doctor immediately. Cool yourself down with a cold damp flannel over your forehead. I think you'll be fine in a few days.
