How to prevent cold sores

I've been suffering from cold sores for about two weeks, so I've done a lot of searching online.

Those of you who are prone to cold sores when your immune system is low or you are tired will know that initially, there is a reaction on the lips, such as slight itching or a burning sensation. At this stage, getting a prescription for antiviral medication and taking it immediately is the best way to prevent the sores from developing and to help them subside quickly. If you cannot get a prescription, it is recommended to use topical medication and take propolis.

However, a good way to prevent this before it happens is to pay attention to moisturizing your lips. Avoid picking at dead skin cells and use plenty of lip moisturizer to prevent wounds on your lips.

I made a note of products like Ilyang Pharmaceutical's Dexlip Care, Hanmi Pharmaceutical's Procam Lip Essence, and Herpetino because I heard they help.

Among these, I purchased Procam Lip Essence at a pharmacy. It is said that panthenol, the main ingredient, helps moisturize the lips.
