They heal by themselves largely
No ointment or home remedy work
You can have Valacyclovir tablets 1g every 12hour (only 3 doses) when you feel the tingling is coming back
It is a Recurrent condition precipitated by stress, fever etc
The frequent will go decreasing woth time

It may be herpes labialis. Currently you can apply mupirocin ointment. However you will need anti virals.
