so every year, and twice a year i always get a cold sore on my lip. but today i just got 3 of them all together randomly. i haven t done anything (eg, sexual interactions, drinking someone else s water) and i just dont know if this is ok or should i see someone else??
It is herpes simplex labialis. It is a relapsing viral skin disease. Total cure is difficult. A load of the HSV virus should be reduced by long-term regular treatment. Take acyclovir thrice a day for few years. Take immunomodulator like levamisole daily. Apply acyclovir cream.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
