Oh no, cold sores are usually outside your mouth, around your lips and rarely on your nose. Are you talking about ulcers which occur inside the mouth?

If it is an ulcer, then I usually use bonjella gel.

Cold sores are blisters caused the Herpes type 1 virus

Yes, there is no curative treatment

But local application of antiviral creams can limit the duration of the symptoms to less than a week, use the cream known as Zovirax

Menstruation does cause reactivation thus you see it often in females

Should the person suffer from recurrent blisters, then he/she should be treated with systemic antivirals which will suppress the virus for ages if not for good
