I know to most this is going to sound so 'girlie' and rediculous but let me explain myself.

My son graduates in a few days and I woke up this morning and my whole bottom lip is a blister. It usually happens in January, always once a yr. As luck would have it... its popped up during graduation.

Graduation = many friends family and pictures.

I ran to the store around 4 am when I first noticed it and bought Abreva (that **** is 23.00 for a tube that is only 4 cetimeters long!)

Im using that and praying. Anyone else used Abreva and healed really quick?

Or are there other things I can do to make it better sooner.

I dont know why I have a fever blister really bad once a year... just always have.

Any advice is so appreciated!!!

Man, my lip looks scary. I literally look like I have been beaten. A cop in Wal-Mart asked me if there was anything I wanted to talk about while I was picking out plants yesterday.

I said no, why? I do something? He said no ma'am but its very obvious someone has beaten on you. I was like what are you talking about (very offended). I could NOT convince this guy otherwise.

Then I remembered I had my medicine and showed it to him.

So embarrassing. It is GROSSLY swollen. I dont even look like myself and I pick the mom, whom I have never laid my eyes on before, today at 3:00... looking like this.

Im truly beside myself. My face is literally distorted. This sucks so bad.

aciclovir i think that might be the pharmacy brand here but.i bite my lip in my sleep sometimes when im stressed and too tired to realise im doing it.if you can get a cold sore cream even if its not a cold sore it will stop it getting infected and heals pretty quick.
