Abreva. Use it within the first day of symptoms for the best results.
This may sound kinda icky; but it works.
1. for ones inside the mouth btwn gums and cheek; dab a little alcohol on your finger and rub it on the sore twice a day until healed(2/3 days).
2. for ones on the outside of mouth on or around the lips; take a Q-tip and clean a dab of earwax from your ear and rub a little of it on the sore at night before bedtime un till healed(2/4 days).
Zovirax (by prescription) or Abreva (over the counter). Apply at first sign of a tingle on the lip. These don't always prevent cold sores but they do shorten the length of healing time.
