Cold sores can present as small blisters on the lip and mouth. They can be red and often leak a clear fluid and then scab over in about two weeks.
SO What causes a cold sore?
Cold sores are caused by a virus known as the herpes simplex virus and teh virus can be spread by the clear fluid and if you touch a cold sore.
the symptoms can vary from a mild tingling to quite severe pain and then this then develops into the blister
the best way to avoid cold sores is to avoid contact with anyone who has a cold sore and not to share any utensils.
I found out about Lifestyle Dental through the Website and I came in because it was the closet clinic. I was unhappy with my teeth and I did not smile. When I did smile I didn’t show my teeth. I have had some veneers done and now when I smile I show all my teeth and am very happy.
My friends and family all like my new smile.
