Cold Sores

Cold sores, also known as fever blisters, are small, fluid-filled blisters that appear on or around the lips. They are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV)and can be triggered by factors such as stress, sunlight, or a weakened immune system. Cold sores are contagious and can spread through direct contact with the blister or by sharing items such as utensils or towels.
