Is ice a good cold sore remedy?
I heard ice is a good remedy for cold sores but wouldn’t that spread them? I mean considering they’re reeeeaaally contagious, wouldn’t it spread when the ice melted? Any other remedies that really worked for anyone without it hurting?

Pressing or rubbing ice on a sore is possibly the best-known home remedy for cold sores. There are several benefits to this remedy. If the ice is applied early in the development of the cold sore, it can slow down the metabolism of the area around the cold sore, greatly slowing its growth. It is good to hold the ice to the sore for a few minutes every ten minutes for a few hours. The ice will also make the sore smaller and keep the virus from moving or spreading.
