virus or herpes Herpes simplex type 1 is a kind of disease that typically affects the lips and can be spread through kissing or by using objects that an ‘infected’ person uses. The virus, once contracted, remains in your body permanently, and the blisters on your lips may be brought on by stress, a weakened immune system, a cough, or dehydration. We provide you with some remedies that you might find in your kitchen to hasten the healing process.
Black tea
Boil a tea cup of black tea and keep the bag. Leave it cool, then apply it on the affected area for several minutes.
Garlic
Garlic is the enemy of bacteria. Take a piece of garlic, cut it in two halves and apply it on the affected area.
Milk
Milk contains an antioxidant called lysine, which accelerates the healing process. Soak a cotton ball in the milk and apply it on the herpes.
Lemon
Lemon also has anti-bacterial properties. Squeeze 3 drops of lemon 3 times per day on your herpes.
Honey and vinegar
