St. John`s Wort Essential Oil on Your Fever Blister

You can apply St. John`s Wort (also known as Hypericum) essential oil. This contains tannins which dry up a cold sore. Because essential oils are very concentrated, only a drop or two is needed.

Although St. John's Wort essential oil is not a pain killer, it seems to calm the nervous system and so is able to decrease the sensation of pain.

It is also anti-inflammatory and antiseptic. It may be applied directly on areas where pain or inflammation occur, or on pulse points (wrists, on the back of the elbows, knees, etc.) during times of stress.

When applied to the skin, it is delivered within seconds into the bloodstream and therefore bypasses the digestive process. The essential oil is for topical use only.
