Symptoms of COLD SORE


Cold sores produce small, fluid-filled blisters. They usually occur around the mouth, gums, nose and lips, but can occur anywhere on the body. The blisters develop on a reddened area of skin that is painful. Eventually, the blisters break and ooze. Following that, they form yellow scabs or crusts that finally fall off. The underlying skin is pink. If the eye is infected, it can produce a red, painful eye and blurred vision. There may be increased sensitivity to light, a sensation of a foreign body in the eye and increased tearing.
