About a week and a half ago I had gotten a cold sore, and after I told my boyfriend, he still kissed me, until I told him it was contagious. Four days later, he started having getting a canker sore under his tongue and a sore throat. Now his gums are swollen and it seems what appears to be that his taste are missing on a part of his tongue. I can’t help but to blaim myself for what’s happening to him, but just to be sure that it’s only cold sores that is the matter with me I’ve planned to get myself checked as soon as possible. I’ve never heard of a cold sore doing that much damage, but can it be possible. By the way this was his first occurence with a cold sore, and I am aware of them being part of the herpes simplex virus, but not to be so harmful.

or could you get it without touching or kissing anyone?
Or must i have caught it somewhere
because ive had cold sores since i was young… and i obviously wasnt having any sexual interactions at all
maybe cause i took a sip of water from someones cup or something?

What causes cold sores and how can I get them to go away??
I’m aware that it is a herpes virus but not the sexual kind. What exactly does ‘controlling my health’ mean?

I might just be being a hypochondriac, but one of my family members kissed my cheek (I hadn’t seen him in a while) before I could notice he had a huge cold sore and stop him! I am scared now that I will catch the virus that causes cold sores . . . can it be caught this way, or would he have had to kiss my mouth?

My boyfriend had a cold-sore, and a week later I was diagnosed with Mono. I am aware that mono and cold-sores are both caused by the Herpes virus. Could the transfer of the cold-sore virus have evolved into mono? Or are these unrelated?

Hello…I was just wondering - I have gotten cold sores before. They don’t last long, usually 3 days or so..I also have one now, and I mom told me it means I have Herpes…is this true? I know it can be spread through direct contact, but I’ve never had sex, and I’m a little worried.
Is it possible to develop a cold sore without having Herpes? If not, I’m really concerned that people are going to want to stay away from me (romantically) because they don’t want to date someone who has Herpes.
I really hope I get an answer saying a simple cold can cause a sore…please help!
Thanks =)
