Cold sore

Hi, Anyone suffer from cold sore? I’ve been upset the past 2 days as I get my first Cold Sore. I’ve been kissing my childs on Monday as I’m not aware that’s cold sore. I think is pimple and the yesterday is growing to 3 dots. Now I’m scared to death that I will pass it to my 3 months old and 3 yo. My husband told me that kids have cold sore usually get bully in the school and that breaks my heart already. I couldn’t stop crying thinking that if they get the cold sore from me and then when they appear when they going to school and then other kids bully them.

Hi! I suffer a lot with them, wash your hands after touching your face and try your hardest not to kiss the children, my GP told me you can only pass it on when it’s at its blistering stage so try not to panic if you’ve not realised straight away. As soon as I feel one coming (tingly feeling) I call the GP for some Aciclovir tablets and also use Zovirax straight away. Xx

I hope they don’t get them, fingers crossed for you. Whole milk on a cotton ball should help to get rid of it x

@Corrie i kissed them on Monday when the first start blistering. Then on Tuesday I realised that’s not pimple. Since yesterday I used Zovirax and now it’s look like scabbing already. I hope both my child not get it

@Gemma finger cross. I need to with 20 days to see if they are infected or not

It’s a horrible feeling, I was soooo paranoid when I first started getting them after baby was born, I’m super careful but I also was told they aren’t likely to get them if you haven’t kissed them on broken skin. Best thing you can do is keep an eye on them and any concerns call your doctor straight away. I hope they will not get them x
