Essencia Solution: Essential Oils Against Cold Sores

Cold sores are common and they are unbearable! To help you soothe them and make them disappear naturally, Essential Oils are your allies…

What are Cold Sores?

Cold sores, also called herpes are a very common condition. It is the result of the herpes simplex virus type 1 entering the body through a lesion or through a mucosal tissue.

Symptoms are easily recognized and localized around the mouth, or even on the rest of the face. It starts with a burning sensation, and then transparent vesicles and scabs form. A cold sore cycle lasts 10 to 15 days and often occurs during periods of fatigue or intense stress.

Once the virus is in the body, it is impossible to get rid of it. It settles in the lymph nodes, and then it can enter a dormant phase for several years!

Essential Oils, indispensable in soothing cold sores

If we cannot eliminate the virus from our body, there are still remedies to soothe the symptoms and speed the healing of cold sores. Among these remedies, Essential Oils are indispensable, including:

Chamomile Essential Oil: for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties
