My Husband's First Cold Sore!!!!! Posted: 01-19-06 00:21am
My husband and I are both sick with colds.
He had a blister pop up on his upper lip
today and I think it is a cold sore.
Though, all the medical sites say he had
to come in contact with another cold sore.
This couldn't have happened because we
have both been home in bed sick for a
week. So my question is what caused this
little blister? Was it the fever from
being sick? If so why didn't I get one?
Someone said he may have had them as a kid
and just doesn't remember, help!

Hi... From my understanding you can have
the cold sore virus for years and never
have an outbreak and then if the
conditions are just right an outbreak can
occur. Hope you and your hubby are
feeling better!!
