Hi,
You may be knowing that cold sore is also called herpes simplex. It mostly occurs on lips. It is a viral skin disease. It usually occurs when the person becomes immunologically deprived. So, take steps to improve the strength of the body...means immunity. You may be take a course of antiviral like acyclovir in proper dose under observation of dermatologist. And also apply acyclovir cream on the lesions.
Hope this helps.
