It may help heal the sores or blisters but nystatin cream is more used to treat fungal or candidas infections. If it burns or irritate your skin then discontinue using it and get some over the counter cold sore cream or antiviral medication.

How do you holisticly treat oral herpes?

herpes is a virus that infects the nerve cells in your body. there are several serotypes (varieties) but the most common are HSV1 (herpes simplex virus 1) and HSV2. while HSV1 is more commonly "oral" herpes and HSV2 is more commonly "genital" herpes, both can be transmitted to either location. There is no treatment for herpes. once you have been infected, you are infected for life. A person can only treat the symptoms of herpes to make the outbreaks less painfull and of a shorter duration. There are no holistic remedies that have been scientifically proven.
