Herpes Simplex
"I caught my first cold sore in 3rd grade from a friend not realizing you shouldn&#039;t share water and am stuck with this virus for the rest of my life. Usually I&#039;ll get one annoying sore outbreak every 2-4 years (lucky I know but my immune system is strong and my behavior isn&#039;t risky for them) I was up late in my room on a Friday due to summer (aprox 1 am) and got that terrifying itch. Immediately I tore my bathroom apart looking for abreva. I put a bunch on but the sore still broke out. Since its summer I was able to stay home with no makeup and get lots of sleep. I put abreva on about 4 times a day along with sterilizing with rubbing alcohol and by Monday it was gone! Life saver if you have time to be antisocial."
