it appears the cold sores themselves are gone now. it took me the whole 12 days for them to be gone. that's probably the most severe cases because normal people's heals in a week right?

the sores are gone but the shapes are still there and it's still red. What does that mean?

[TheFashionSpaz]

@xbearcanrockx a week is actually pretty fast. if you don't take care of your cold sores, they can last for a couple weeks or longer. if the blisters have gone away, they are probably not infectious anymore and they are going to be gone soon :)

@TheFashionSpaz Thank you for the reply and the help! I actually tried this method I read about that involved Ban (unscented) roll on (crazy, I know) and acetone and it stopped it from blistering/puffing up. It stayed around the same size as when it came on and I guess it's not that noticeable. The problem is that I'm ridiculously self-conscious about it and still feel like as if it looks like a beachball is on my face. You're totally right in that I should look at it that way but it's tough to

@contemplate206 Don't be ashamed! Nobody cares, and the people who would judge you for having a cold sore are idiots. Honestly, I would skip concealer if you're a guy because you probably won't know how to put it on, making the cold sore even more obvious. But if you want, you can buy concealer at drug stores or department stores (dept stores being more expensive but have make up artists who can help you make a good decision about which concealer to buy). Honestly, carmex will help a lot!
