Answer 1

Sounds like it's either a "cold sore" - a type of herpes, in which case treat it with Zovirax available from the chemist. Or is it "Coleslaw" - shredded carrot, onion and cabbage in which case serve it with chicken fillet in a sesame bun.

Answer 2

I really don't advise consuming that blemish on your upper lip with a plate of salad ... but for cold sores - fairly sure there are special gels or creams to clear them up.

Answer 3

Dab rubbing alcohol or salt on it off and on during the day. It will kill the germs and dry it out. It should go away in a few days.

Answer 4

Its called a coldsore not colesaw - thats that whitey stuff with bits in you have in sandwiches or whatever.

And go to the chemist and ask them for something. Bliztex is best!!!! It tastes really nice too, you just put it on couple times in the day and it goes within a couple of days.

Answer 5

You can buy Zovirax from any pharmacy but its best put on the minute the cold sore appears. Get it anyway as you will probably get more of them in the future.

Its caused by a virus called Herpes Simplex and can be passed from person to person by kissing.  

Answer 6

it's a form of herpes unfortunatly, some people tend to be more prone to them than others. there's loads of tratments you can get from pharmacies or if you like alternative therapy you can use diluted teetree oil. holding an icecube on it for a few minutes can help reduce the redness as well

Answer 7

ahahaha coleslaw is some disgusting mayonase and onion stuff klol

Answer 8

coleslaw is lovely on a jacket potato!

Answer 9

Cold sore is what it sounds like.  Acidophilus is helpful, but more so at the beginning, like when it was at the itching stage.  Keep your tongue and fingers away from it, eat yogurt (unflavored or unflavored with real fruit is best), even put yogurt on it if it really hurts.  The more you mess with it, the longer it will last.  It will actually look worse as it gets better...

Answer 10

Smart people just wipe the coleslaw off their lip with a napkin.

Answer 11

Coleslaw lol

Cold sore you mean? Get somes stuff from Boots

Answer 12

My bro gets them all the time you can easily get medicine for them or cream.

Answer 13

Do you mean a cold sore?

Coleslaw is a vegetable dish......duh!

Answer 14

put some aftershave perfume on it, then tonight before you go to bed stick a bit of toothpaste on ot.

the aftershave /perfume will kill the gem ( it will sting a little ) and the toothpaste will dry it up.

ps its a cold sore not coleslaw ( you eat that on jacket spuds)

Answer 15

You must mean a cold sore. It is called Herpes Simplex 1, which is usually caused by a virus. There are things you can purchase over the counter such as Abreva, or Campho-phenique cold sore treatment, or  SuperLysine Plus cream or cold stick. I have used them all, but prefer the cold stick. You can also take L-Lysine in a 500mg. tablet two times a day. This is found in the vitamin section of most stores and pharmacies. There is also a prescription called Zovirax, which I have, but it really dries them out and can become uncomfortable. All of these dry up the blisters and they eventually disappear in about 10 days. You may be left with a scar for a while, but it will fade out over time. Many people have these lesions at one time or another, and once you have them they can and most often do re-appear if your immune system gets run down or over-worked. The sun also makes them pop up if you sun bathe. There is no cure for Herpes Simplex, but you can try to control it. Good luck.

Answer 16

I think you are trying to say "cold sore", however your description could be a reaction to something in the crisp.  You will need to either visit a physician or your local pharmacy, to identify the cause, or at least provide symptomatic relief.
