Cold Sore Treatment Market Analysis and Size
According to World Health Organization statistics, from 2020, around 3.7 million persons nationwide were infected with HSV 1. Direct contact with infected skin or saliva transmits the HSV-1 virus. Primary infection can produce a fever, aching gums, a sore throat, and swollen or irritated glands in the neck in children. The virus then becomes dormant in nerve roots close to the affected skin. The virus only rarely, if ever, reactivates in certain persons. Recurrences of the virus, known as secondary herpes episodes, can occur in certain people, resulting in cold sores. While the exact reason of reactivation has yet to be discovered, a range of factors, such as stress, dental treatment, illness, lip trauma, or sun exposure, might trigger an outbreak.

Market Definition
A cold sore is a fluid-filled blister that occurs on the lips or around the mouth. Fever blisters, oral herpes, and herpes labialis are all terms used to describe cold sores. Herpes simplex is the virus that causes them. Herpes simplex virus 1 is the most prevalent strain of the virus that causes cold sores. Antiviral ointments, including acyclovir and penciclovir, are applied on sores as part of the treatment. These may work for some people, but they are frequently ineffective. Antiviral oral drugs such as famciclovir, acyclovir and valacyclovir can help reduce the duration and severity of sores. Symptoms may be relieved by applying over-the-counter pain relievers to the sores (topical). Anti-inflammatory drugs could potentially be beneficial.
