For years my mom told me the sores I get on my lips were canker sores… learned today they’re cold sores and apparently I’ve had herpes since I was a little kid. Would have been lovely to know before I got married and was kissing folks
I was told they were canker sores, they’re not all that different and I didn’t have much a reason to believe otherwise until I learned otherwise

Both are blistery mouth, I also get canker sores inside my mouth, they don’t really feel all that different, the only differences are one shows up inside my mouth and one shows up on my lips and one is contagious and the other isn’t

Not really, I can’t see the inside of my mouth very well and the ones on my lips tend to pop because I chew on them without thinking about it.
