Toothache can be really painful at times, can't it ET? Hope you can get it all sorted out soon!

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.

Stress seems to bring out those cold sores, or as my folks called them fever blisters. And Lord knows, we have a lot of stress these days.
I've never tried peroxide, but camphor was always the best for me. There's the oil, or there's waxes, like Carmex that have it in them.


Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I used to be quite prone to cold sores. At the first sign of a tingly sensation in my lips area, I dab on a little Abreva. [I'm sure it's available there.]

It comes in a small tube. It also helps speed up the healing process.

Good luck~~~

What rotten timing to have a tooth filling fall out - glad to hear it's not giving you grief pain-wise. Here's hoping the peroxide sees the cold sore gone come 1 July. Apparently aloe vera gel can soothe inflamed skin/has anti-inflammatory properties so would be worth a try if you have any close at hand. Here's wishing for a speedy goodbye to herpes simplex!

Those cold sores are such annoying little things. Some can last for ages. I find carmex works for me. Hopefully yours clear up in time for your dental appointment. You are lucky you have no pain in the tooth .

I have a very sharp tooth at the back of my mouth which can be painful at times. I'm trying to hold off going to the dentist just yet. I'm not sure if they are taking appointments right now. Maybe I will give them a ring and check if they are open for business.
