You are probably aware of the symptoms of a fever blister: you start to feel a slight burning, tingling, or itching sensation only on the lips, immediately followed by a slight painful bump. It’s just bad and you definitely don’t like it. And unfortunately, if you have a bloom fever, you are also more prone to future bloom outbreaks. Let’s take a look at what is causing the fever to flourish and how to get rid of it without surgery.
A fever blister is a growth on the skin that develops from a virus. Most often, this infection occurs in the mouth, which is why it is so common in people who have had a cold or sore throat. In addition, people with diabetes can also get them because the body does not produce the right amount of insulin for glucose. This is what leads to rapid, uneven rise and fall in blood sugar levels. As soon as the blood sugar drops again, fever will develop. Of course, this type of infection can occur in other parts of the body as well, but most often it occurs on the lips.
The cause of blistering is not well known, but scientists believe it happens when the body is unable to remove excess sugar from the bloodstream. This is usually caused by an infection. When the immune system is weakened, the body can try to fight the infection, but the infection can return when the immune system is insufficient. So you get a fever and another flare-up occurs.
Blooming fever is not easy to get rid of. It is possible that it can be removed with over-the-counter medications, but they don’t always work and often don’t completely cure the infection. In addition, these medications only treat the symptoms and not the root of the problem. They do nothing to help the body fight a future infection, which is why it will not allow it to recur. Another thing is that these drugs create a great burden on the immune system. The body is usually too weak to fight infection on its own.
However, there are some home remedies that can help. If you find a solution that works for you, it might be worth giving it a try. But please note that this approach should only be used as a stopgap measure or as a last resort. Do not treat fever blisters with medications that can damage the rest of your body.
Garlic has been shown to help the body fight bacteria and viruses. Apply fresh garlic to each blister and cover them with a bandage. Leave it on overnight and then wash off the bandage after three hours, then apply an antibiotic ointment. Repeat this process daily. Garlic is believed to kill bacteria and yeast.
Tea tree oil is another good option for removing fever flowers. Simply apply a couple of drops of this oil to each blister and blot it with a cotton swab until the blister falls off. Keep in mind that this remedy may not work for everyone, but it is one way to treat bloom fever. Remember, they should only be used on the most delicate areas like your face, because tea tree oil can damage the outer surface of your skin.
Fever blisters can be cured, but they will return over time. This is where home remedies come in. The best way to avoid this is to avoid flower fever infestation altogether. Once you find a treatment you like, stick with it and let it work for you.
