I have facial herpes under my nose, what can I do to speed up healing?

To accelerate the healing of facial herpes under the nose, it is recommended to consult a doctor for a prescription antiviral medication. Over-the-counter products are generally not very effective. Keeping the affected area hydrated and avoiding spreading the infection by washing hands frequently are also important steps in the healing process. Additionally, protecting the area from cold and wind can help prevent further irritation.
