Cold Sores are caused by the virus herpes simplex, another strain of which produces genital herpes. This virus is able to lie dormant in our tissues almost indefinitely until conditions trigger off an attack. It is probable that nearly everybody has acquired this virus at an early age from another person, so the key factor is what allows the virus to multiply and erupt.

Herpes or cold sores spreads very quickly so take great care not to transfer the infection from your lips to your eyes. An open sore on the lip is not necessarily the only sign of herpes and in fact may not occur at all.
