Anything I can do or take to prevent cold sores completely?
I know this is a weird place to ask this, but I don't know what to do anymore since Google doesn't help much and my doctor's office is closed due to the quarantine. I always used to get cold sores, but fairly rarely. In the past 2 years I've been getting them frequently and it is too painful and uncomfortable for me to handle so often.
