Cold sores are spread by skin-to-skin contact with an infected person, at the location where the virus is active, during a time when they are shedding virus. If a girl has a cold sore, and you kiss her genital area (where no sore is) but not her mouth (where the sore is), you are not likely to get infected.
If you kiss someone with a cold sore/herpes virus sore, that person will contract the herpes virus. You are contagious with and without an outbreak. If you think you have cold sores or herpes, which they're basically the same thing, make an appointment with your doctor and have it checked. There's no cure, but there are ways to control the virus so that the outbreaks happen less and for a shorter time period. A herpes outbreak last from 5 to 14 days and once you contract the virus, it will remain in your body even if you don't have an outbreak. If you do have herpes, you are not alone. One in five Americans have the virus. However, educate yourself on the virus so that you don't spread it to others or to other parts of your body like your eyes and genitals. Be safe and smart.
After a cold sore outbreak has been overcome it can take up to 14 days for the Herpes Simplex Virus (the virus that is constantly in the body and incurable that causes cold sores) to become dormant again. Within this period it is all to easy to spread the cold sore or for the outbreak to come back!
Cold sores are caused by the herpes virus. It never leaves your body once you get it. Periodically, usually during times of stress, the virus will appear on the surface of the body as a sore.
