Kate was repeatedly getting cold sores and nothing was really helping, that is, until her mother employed homeopathy. Then everything changed.
This is her story:
When my daughter was 6 months old she contracted the herpes simplex virus. She broke out in dozens of cold sores inside and outside of her mouth, it was horrible!
My sisters had attended one of Lisa's homeopathy classes and told me about how homeopathy can be used to help such things. I decided to reach out to Lisa. She was very helpful and suggested some remedies to use to help get her through. The cold sores didn’t return for quite a few years, but once you have the virus it can be triggered anytime. In the last two years, I started to notice that my daughter would break out whenever she was about to get sick, if she ate too much sugar, or spent too much time in the sun. It’s been especially frustrating for her as she feels self-conscious about it now, and it takes a good 2-3 weeks for her face to get to the scab stage which is where they stop spreading.
According to the Mayo clinic :
Cold sores, or fever blisters, are a common viral infection. They are tiny, fluid-filled blisters on and around the lips. These blisters are often grouped together in patches. After the blisters break, a scab forms that can last several days. Cold sores usually heal in 2 to 3 weeks without leaving a scar.
I’ve tried multiple creams and ointments ranging from medicated to natural, and nothing made a noticeable difference. Then, like a miracle, I saw one of Lisa’s posts on Instagram!
I had forgotten about homeopathy! I reached out to Lisa once again and she suggested Rhus tox 30c.* I used this remedy every three hours on the first day of the breakout, then went down to four doses on the second day, then only two doses on the third day. Then when the second breakout occurred (which always happens) I went back up to four doses daily, then twice daily until her face was clear.
I was surprised by how effective it was! Her breakouts went from lasting 2-3 weeks with multiple breakouts happening in a row, to 3 days (to get to the scab stage) for the first breakout, and very minor second break out that also lasted only 2 days (to get to the scab stage).
I feel so encouraged to see such a drastic change and that I was able to help her using only homeopathy!
**My hope is that every time we do this, her break outs get less severe and less frequent.

** Yes, the goal in is to uproot the propensity for this condition to occur in the first place. The beauty of homeopathy (well, ANOTHER reason for choosing homeopathy) is that every time we use the remedy it's an opportunity to go deeper. So instead of saying "Oh No, it's back again!"
No, no, instead we say "Oh GOOD another opportunity to use the the medicine to dig deeper, and really get to the bottom of this condition."
*I recommended Rhus tox 30c for Kate because it is one of our top remedies for cold sores that appear around the mouth and chin. Rhus tox is often used to treat skin conditions such as chicken pox, shingles, herpes, and eczema.
Thank you for sharing your daughters story Alex!
There is another way.
