I get coldsores at least once a month, they are so frustrating!

I asked my midwife about using Zovirax and she said it was fine, but when I went to the chemist he said I shouldnt be using anything that contain the active ingredient.. (which rules out any coldsore cream basically) He said the only thing I could use was the Nyall cream, which I havent tried it yet.

I used to use L-lysine tabs all the time a few years ago, when I used to get them really bad.. and they worked brilliantly.

The last few I have had I have just let go, and used paw paw ointment..
