Bactine, which costs about $5, worked really great for my cold sore. It has the same active ingredient as viroxyn, a very expensive cold sore medicine. I would use both abreva and bactine if possible, but I usually don't want to shell out the extra cash for abreva, so I use bactine alone. I apply it by spraying it onto a q-tip and dabbing at my cold sore several times a day. It can be found in the first aid aisle at Walmart, CVS and most drugstores. Lots of the amazon reviews for bactine also discuss its use for cold sores if you'd like to read about other people's experiences. http://www.amazon.com/Bactine-Original-First-Liquid-Ounce/dp/B000GCIC3Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1425583195&sr=8-1&keywords=bactine
Bactine has been a miracle in a bottle for me. The pain releiver in it is AWESOME, I can actually eat/open my mouth after I put some of this stuff on. Lots of cold sore reviews on it on the link I provided also. Will not go without it, it's been awesome for some cat scratches I got too.
I feel you, i'm suffering from a nasty one right now too. The biggest thing for me is risk of contamination. When I do my skincare routine (I use cotton pads) I use several, and use a separate one when rinsing my cold sore.
I just ordered this on Amazon, lots of reviews from people with cold sores and it's very affordable. I went through a lot of cold sore options on Amazon. There were also little band aid like things you could put on them too but I went with the Bactine.
