Does cold sores ALWAYS mean u have herpies?!


Question: Does cold sores ALWAYS mean u have herpies!?
I think i got 2 cold sores (not sure) yesterday on the edge of my bottom lips!. They're right beside each other!.

Each of them are like 3-5 mm in diameter (if that)

Does this mean I have a form of herpies virus!? :S

I got them RIGHT after!.!.!. i was diong a breakdance move and my face went on my carpet and slid along the carpet!.

*But it wasnt a bad enough slide to cause rub burn but my lips were a bit sore afterwards!.

About 10-20 minutes later these things on my lips started to form!. Does this mean I have/had herpies (w/o knowing it)!?

or could it just b!.!.!. my lips got irritated (or w/e) from the carpet!? :O

Right now, i applied blistex on them, is this a good ointment!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
If you have never had cold sores before, then it was probably just irritation from the carpet and you don't have herpes!. Blistex is good (that's what I use) and abreva is really good too but more expensive!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

irritation of the skin near the lips can be all the trigger needed to make cold sores form, and if you had chicken pox as a child, you have the herpes 1 virus living in your trigeminal nerve!. Herpes 2 is the genital form and considered an std!.
Blistex is as good as anything to apply to the sores, it will keep them moist and promote healing!. I personally use Abreva, it is a bit more expensive, but it works much better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No it doesn't!. I have cold sores on my lips all the time and I definitely have never had any sexual contact!. Take the supplement "Lysine" it really helps prevent them!. You can also try the product "Abreva" to get them off, when you have them!. I don't think you have herpes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Cold sores can just happen if you have dry lips!. It doesn't always mean you have herpies!.

blistex is fine you can also use neosporinWww@Answer-Health@Com

carpet burn ain't a cold soreWww@Answer-Health@Com
