How can you tell if it’s a pimple or a cold sore?
I have a spot on my lip right where the skin goes from pink to white and I can’t tell if it’s a cold sore or a pimple. It hurts… um, it’s red, I can send you a picture if you need it. The main reason i’m asking is because i’ve been informed that a cold sore is the oral herpes virus and you can give it to someone else in the form of Genital Herpes if you… well… you know! Lol, so if anyone could tell me the difference and a good way to treat cold sores (if that’s what’s goin’ on with my lip) that would be so nice! Thanks for the help in advance, and serious answers please! Have a wonderful evening!
yes it could be a cold sore, a cold sore is HSV1 and herpes are called HSV2 Both virus types can cause lip and mouth sores (herpes labialis) and genital herpes if your skin comes into contact with either type.Cold sores are blisters on the lips and the edge of the mouth. a picture would be helpful, but the sites listed below will explain what a cold sore is and the bottom sites have pics of cold sores. you can compare yours to the pics decide for yourself. If you do have a cold sore there is no cure for the virus, but there are treatments that could help with itching and other discomfort of a cold sore. Personally I use carmex, there is a brand called abriva it is suppose to help cure a cold sore faster, I have tried it and have found it to be no better then carmex, only triple the cost. If you do have a cold sore, do not squeeze it as this can cause the infection to spread and you will have a lot more sores.HSV-1 is responsible for only 5-10% of Genital Herpes Cases, while HSV-2 causes the majority of genital herpes cases. Not every person that has HSV 1 has HSV 2!!
