   Acne or Cold Sores? (Acne board)

15th February 2008
[QUOTE=suzyshop1;3435887]You do know that the herpes virus causes cold sores.Have you been tested for herpes?Take care.:(



Yes I know that, and thank you for replying to my thread. :cool: My doctor first gave me Zovirax creme and then a 200mg prescription of Zovirax. I noticed no difference in the "pimples", even when using the both of them and on top of that I have also been taking Lysine for the past year. Thats why im starting to think these are not cold sores, they look nothing like the pictures of cold sores that I have seen online. These are just painless tiny white puss filled pimples. I can upload a picture if anyone would think that would do any good? My doctor hasn't done any tests to determine what they were...

They arent always grouped togethert, although sometimes 2 or 3 will appear right around each other most of them are spread out around my mouth and around the bottom of my nose. It's about time to go back to the doctor anyway for a checkup so I might wait till then to see if he can do some sort of test or recommend a dermatologist.
