Treatments For Health

This is seen as an infection around the lips, most often the upper lip in a small patch of little blisters. It can also appear on the face and mouth. It is caused by the Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1).  Cold sores are also called fever blisters.  The skin in the area around the blisters is red and sore. Usually the blisters break open and discharge a clear fluid. After a few days a scab will form and will take up to several days and may be a fortnight to heal. No medication is actually needed and it heals by itself. The two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2 can both cause the blisters to form, and can also cause genital herpes.

The virus usually enters through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It usually is spread from another person who is already infected by contact or use of eating utensils, razors etc. that come in contact when a person touches a cold sore or  personal contact such as kissing. A child can get this from an infected parent in this manner.  These cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body. Some people who may have the virus but don’t get cold sores show no symptoms at all.

The symptoms that are felt before an attack of cold sores, comes with pain around the mouth or a sore throat, swollen glands in the neck and a slight raised temperature. Then after the appearance of the painful blisters they break open and shed a clear liquid and crust over. It disappears in about a fortnight. Small children who have been infected may sometimes start to drool before a clod sore appears.

A doctor will tell you if you have cold sores after examination and some questions. No tests are required.

Usually cold sores are spread to children and once infected it stays with you for life. There is no known cure. The medication prescribed by doctors by way of creams and pills will not get rid of the condition. It will only ease the pain a little and may speed up the process of natural recovery.
