Are cold sores contagious when they are not visible?
Yes, they can be. As long as your body has the bug it can be given to other people if for example, they were to come within contact of your mouth like kissing Although it is true that cold sores can be spread when you dont have an outbreak...it is highly unlikely. If the lips arent irritated you will most likely be fine to come into contact with them. You don't need to worry, the virus is only contagious when it is activated and causes a sore on your mouth or genitals depending on which virus it is. If other people come into contact with this sore then they may acquire the virus, but I think everyone has had a cold sore in their life and has this virus laying dormant in their bodies. It's just that some people suffer more than others.
