Cold Sore Treatment

We know that cold sores go away on their own and can be soothed with over-the-counter creams and remedies; however, cold sore laser treatment may be able to reduce the length of the outbreak by a couple of days. While that might not seem significant, the less time you spend dealing with the unpleasant tingling and pain of a cold sore the better.
