Works after the tingle
You hear a lot of talk about the “tingle” when it comes to cold sores and fever blister outbreaks. But what is the tingle? Technically, this first phase of a cold sore is referred to as the prodrome. This stage usually lasts several hours to 2 days. There can be visual signs such as swelling or reddening, and it may even be sensitive to touch.
The tingling comes from the HSV 1 or cold sore virus activating. We’ve share some of the causes of that trigger cold sores, but the tingling is the virus irritating your skin cells and nerve endings in not such a good way.
Many treatments to work most effectively count on the product being applied at the first sign of a tingle. That can be hard to do when we are busy with work, family and activities. Even if we are chronic cold sore sufferers, we don’t always have something ready to go.
