Usually coldsores are transmited by direct contact - kissing etc. But thee is a posibility that you get them by using eating utensils or drinking from the same glass. Don't worry too much, but if you get them don't panic. There are many usefull medicines on the market - aciklovir, that can help you.

Cold sores a normal for every one~! Don't wory chapstick, carmax, any thing works bt don''t let any one else use it they will catch it too~! You can get this chapstick or carmax at pretty much any drugstore for about 2 dollars.
Good luck
