When To Get Help
Always consult your doctor to get a definite diagnosis. You should get further medical help if the eyes seem to be affected - which is sometimes the case; or if there is a fever, or if the sores become infected with pus and are very red and painful. You should also tell your doctor if your child suffers from repeated cold sore eruptions.
Special note:
Encephalitis can be used by the herpes simplex 1 virus. (If your child contracts encephalitis) tell your doctor that your child suffers from cold sores.
- Prevention
If you or your child has a cold sore:
Don't share washcloths, sponges, towels, cups, glasses, or eating utensils.
Try to prevent your child from touching the cold sore
Change pillows or bed linen every day to prevent cross-infection.
If hot weather makes the cold sore erupt, use double the amount of sunscreen, particularly on the lips.
