Q: Frequent cold sores on lower lip

asked by: Bubbles8516 on September 8th, 2009

For the past 2 months I have been getting cold sores every week to two weeks on my lower lip in different places each time. Before I would only get a cold sore once every year. Does anyone know why they might be occurring so frequently all of a sudden?

not sure but i m going to email you a website that tells you everything you need to know about cold sores.
you can also keep a tube of abreva from CVS or walgreens, this shortens the duration of the cold sore.
do you take vitamins?
are you eating right?
are you stressed out about something?
