My Father lived to be almost 90... his Father lived to be 92... both suffered cold sores... one smoked himself to death (and was an MD) and my Dad... an Engineer... died of kidney disease. No signs of Alzheimers in my family anywhere.

20 years ago, aluminum was tagged as the culprit. I wounder what the cause will be 20 years from now when I’m getting to be that age?

On the other hand, my dad has never had a cold sore, but has Alzheimer’s.

Researchers recommend people treat a cold sore as quickly as possible to minimize the amount of time the virus is actively traveling through a person's nervous system. The faster a cold sore is treated, the faster the HSV1 returns to a dormant stage.

What's the treatment? Acyclovir at $5 a pop?

How does one treat a cold sore? I get them and nothing seems to help.

Used to get cold sores on my lips, especially during the winter. Around 40 I grew a beard and mustache, hardly had a cold sore since. When I do, I dab a little Chapstick on it and it's gone the next day.
Really think shaving has something to do with it......Irritation triggered maybe.
