How can i tell if i am at the beginning stages of a cold sore?

I don't know.: There is not enough information to try to venture even a guess. Cold sores are painful liquid filled blisters that can occur on the lips, roof of the mouth or the gums which are caused by the herpes simplex virus (hsv-1).
