Well the most common: thing with cold sores is that there is tingling, burning or pain that occurs at the site of the herpes infection prior to the blisters appearing, then there are tiny blisters on a red base. As long as you don't kiss her you really don't have to worry, but it you think it might be suggest there is a new oral medication that dissolves in your mouth to reduce recurrence
