Well If you have a cold sore alot of times they have ointments to stop the pain ! But to heal the bump you should put a piece of ice and hold it to the sore for 20 minutes. After that put a thin layer of Vaseline on there ! do that a few times a day. At night put a nice big layer of Vaseline on there. It should go away in about 3 days! If its a bump and not a cold sore the use toothpaste or rubbing alcohol to help dry it up ! That will take 2-3 days! That works alot better than popping the bump.

Well it all depends if it's inside your mouth or sitting on the surface outside your mouth. If it's inside the mouth, you might want to try mixing some sea salt and lemon juice with a bit of warm water. Yes, it taste awful but what this does is allow the sea salt to dry out the sore while having the lemon juice kill the bacteria. If you do this a couple times a day it should speed up the healing process.

Just take a small cup, and fill it up with about 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons (or regular dinner spoons), of salt. Then, fill the cup with warm water (not too hot, unless you like that), to about 3/4 of the cup. Take in some water, (should take about 3 times until it's empty), and gurgle it, (don't swallow it) for 30 seconds each time. Then spit it out. Do it a few times a day, or whenever the cold sore really hurts, or bugs you. (Tell a doctor if this doesn't help.)

You could go to a drug store and buy Origel, which is a numming medicine. But most cold sores usually go away after a few days.
