A cold sore!: When you are sick from any cause, or under mental stress, the herpes virus in many individuals will "outbreak." physical stres or mental stress to the body, it is the same. That is why "cold sores" are called cold sores. If you are prone to this. Ask your doctor for a herpes medication you can take immediately to prevent an outbreak! best!
