I'm Currently Feeling: | ugh cold sores have a way of putting you in an instant bad mood i also get them and got two while being pregnant - i think really just from being run down and not the actual pregnancy
i have an excellent cream i use for them but wasnt sure it was safe for pregnancy looked it up on the pharmaceutical website but it wasnt clear so i just let them go away on their own.
hope you feel better | | | | Status: Offline

| ive used every cream but dont seem to work.
i know it sounds weird but the only thing that works is aquafresh toothpaste, no other toothpaste works but aquafresh drys up when its on a sore and i think it takes all the moisture out of sore and kills it. other toothpaste seems to feed it.
