Had tingling on bottom lip and now cold sore. First recall hugging family friend
cheek to cheek and for 2 months had a bump or 2 on cheek. I dont know if I have had this condition for years or from the friend 3 months ago. Is there any way to know? I heard something like if it can spread on my body its new and if it was years ago then its unspreadable to myself. Do I use a q tip and
try on arm or something? Help!!!
