Cold sore or hive? (Read 5443 times)

iamnotalone Mentor Offline I Love YaBB 2! Posts: 296	Cold sore or hive? 05/08/12 at 15:22:38 Here's a stumper; During my recent rash of hives, I had some on my lips too. Then... I got what felt like a cold sore on each end of my upper lip, so I put some prescription cream on the "spots". I am not sure if they were still hives??? Anyone have this problem- yet ? How can one tell ?

Oh my;
It's so hard to remember not to kiss anyone when this happens.
It's almost a reflex to want to kiss my grandson all the time.
My husband- I remember to be careful with...Hmmmm- that's interesting Cheesy

I guess we should treat any "hives" on our mouths as Suspect. My sister gave me a kiss on the lips one Christmas years ago, & she had a cold sore. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
