Waiheke Island, Auckland – Cold sores or lip herpes is one of the most common skin diseases. Almost everyone knows the uncomfortable feeling it creates, such as tingling and itching or even burning. Within a short time, painful vesicles, followed by thick crusts spread over the lips. Almost 90% of our countries population are victims of this – once infected – regularly returning viral infection.

There are various reasons: Stress, low immune system, sun exposure or fever – therefore sometimes it is also called “fever blisters”. Menstruation trauma can also be a cause for the disease.

There are a number of options for treatment, such as cremes and tablets. Some with side effects though and most products can't be used by pregnant women. But there is also a natural technique which works free of any chemicals and is free of risks or possible side effects.
