What are Cold sores?
Cold sores are small, fluid-filled blisters that can occur anywhere on the face but most commonly appear near or around one’s lips. Cold sore disease is caused by Herpes simplex virus and there’s no cure for it; once you contract this infection—you’ll likely experience recurring flare ups throughout your life! However, if treated early enough with antiviral medications like Acyclovir (or its generic version valacycloviron), many people have stopped experiencing symptoms within weeks/months after receiving treatment in some cases as soon at nights following exposure while others need more time before they’re free from discomfort again
