Cold Sore Blister – Try to Be Careful

Cold Sore Blister – Try to Be Careful – A cold sore blister is a large, painful lesion that can weep and seep with pus. Gross, I know. They are also very contagious. You can easily pass on a cold sore if you are not careful.

You can even create an outbreak on another part of your body if you are not careful. All you must do is to touch the cold sore and then rub your eyes. That can cause an outbreak around your eyes, which is not fun.

At the very beginning of an outbreak, you will feel a slight tingling or burning feeling on the site of the outbreak…usually the lips. This can occur many days before the actual blister appears, so it is important that you recognize it, so you do not pass it on before you realize that you are getting a cold sore and that you are contagious.

The next stage in the development of a cold sore blister is the actual blister. It is small at this point and there can even be more than one clumped together. These blisters are filled with pus and can be not only unsightly but painful as well.

The skin around the blister will be tender and painful to the touch. It can also have a red appearance and just look sore. After a while, the blisters will become even more attractive as they erupt leaving and open, weeping wound (lovely, I know).

After a few days of weeping (the cold sore will be weeping too) the blister will start to dry up and a scab will form. This is the point where the outbreak can start to itch and burn. Try not to give into temptation to scratch or you will break open the scab and cause the area to bleed. The itch and pain will go away after several days.

Over the next several days the scabs will start to fall off and you will be left with ‘new’ pink skin. Usually that pink will fade within a few days, and you should be left with clear, scar free skin.

Do not forget, you must be careful during an outbreak, or you can pass the infection on to others and even on to yourself in other areas of your body. Having an outbreak around your mouth is bad enough, think of what it would be like around your eyes or on your fingers. Yuck. Wash your hands thoroughly and often to help avoid this problem.

And to try and decrease the number of infections you get, try to eat right, get plenty of sleep, use a multi vitamin and wash your hands thoroughly. It is always better to prevent an outbreak then it is to treat one.

Even though most of us will get an outbreak at some point or another, none of us like them. Not only do we want to avoid the pain and ugliness of a cold sore, but we also hate the idea that we must change our daily routines, so we do not pass them on to others. You can keep your nasty little cold sore blister.
