Recurrence of cold sores
(Limited to those who have received diagnosis and treatment from a doctor in the past)
[Explanation]
Cold sores are a disease caused by infection with the herpes virus. Once infected, the virus does not disappear even if the herpes symptoms subside; it remains hidden in the nerve cells. When you catch a cold or feel unwell due to stress, fatigue, etc., you may experience redness, swelling, and blisters following the prodromal symptoms (signs of recurrence) such as tingling and tingling. In this way, when a latent virus etc. starts to go wild due to some trigger, it is called a relapse.
