Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus. The virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid.

Is foban cream good for coldsores?

Not for the primary cause of the sore. Cold sores are caused by a viral infection, specifically, the herpes simplex virus. The active ingredient in foban cream is fusidic acid, which is a type of antibiotic. Antibiotics are only good against bacteria, not viruses. However, there may be some evidence that it helps in the healing, in the same way that antibiotics helps in rhinovirus-initiated colds. It prevents secondary bacterial infections that may hinder the body's own natural healing process from the virally caused wound. Hope this answers your question.

How do you get rid of a coldsores?

You use Abreva. It is the only cold sore medicine that i would recommend. It works extremely fast and you could have it gone in less than a week. If your cold sore has not even already started and you feel a tingling sensation on your lip, you are most likely to get a cold sore in the next few hours. The best thing to do then is to use Abreva and/or put cold ice onto your lip. I hope that helps. (:
