If dental visits trigger canker sores, swab inside of mouth, including gums,
tongue, roof of mouth, inside cheek and lips, prior to dentalwork.
Cold sores are lesions typically occurring on or around the lip area, although they can erupt elsewhere. They are caused by the herpes simplex 1 virus, which lies dormant until sun, stress, fatigue or irritation in the mouth area, such as a dental procedure or a nick while shaving, triggers an outbreak.
At times, the viral infection may cause a fever or flu symptoms, but for most people, the first symptom of a cold sore is a ‘tingling’ or numb sensation on or around the lips where a pimple size bump quickly develops into a larger, painful swelling within minutes to hours later. Usually by day three, tiny clusters of blisters form which eventually burst, exposing the open lesions, which, days later, scab until the entire infection has run its course within 10-14 days.
It’s not unusual for some sufferers to call in sick at work, cancel events, or re-arrange their schedule to ‘hide out’ as much as possible until it heals. It’s not pretty, and can be devastating if it happens to occur on your wedding day, first date, job interview, public appearance, or other important event.
