So I got a cold sore last Wednesday the process has been pretty fast it started scabbing up on days 2-3, i got a brown scab and everything went down but I noticed abreva was making my scab really soft and would make it slide off basically. My original scab( first two pictures) came off and now there’s this smaller yellow/brown scab. Is abreva making it worse? The first two pictures are from Sunday. The rest of the pictures are from today. I also want to add I haven’t had any itchyness or redness and no swelling.

Edit: I also want to add I do not get frequent cold sores, the last cold sore I had was 3 years ago and before that it was when I was 5 and had first contracted it.
