Many people think that cold sores are a relatively minor issue unless you have cold sores. For those that do, you know that an outbreak can be more than uncomfortable. It can be crippling.
The good news is, we can effectively treat them. Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), which is the oral form of the virus.
It is not well known, that clinical studies suggest 67% of the world population under age 50 has HSV-1. Light therapy is Best recommended for Cold Sores Treatment.
Canker sores also called aphthous ulcers, are small, shallow lesions that develop on the soft tissues in your mouth or at the base of your gums. There are more than 3 million cases per year in the US alone.
