The fastest way to get rid of a cold sore (that I have found) is to take about five matches, light them, blow them out, then dip them in water. Pinch the wet sulfur and rub it between your fingers. Pop the cold sores somehow (I useally pick them with my finger nails or a needle) Applly the wet sulfur like lip gloss. wait at LEAST 2 hours, wash off the sulfur with alcahol or proxide, apply bagbalmor yourbasic anaceptic ointment, leave on overnight (If the anticeptic oinment does not heal the wound over night repeat agian the next night.
