You have herpes...thanks for the info dude...LOL
ETA: If you "go down on someone" you will give them genital herpes. If you kiss someone, you will give them what you have. Just think of all the people you may have infected already...

yes they are VERY contagious and yes you can EASILY spread them to others.
they are a form of herpes and are caused by a virus. this means that they can not be cured, only treated. your best bet is herpacin L (i think that's what it's called) regular medicated chap stick or carmex helps too, but does not get rid of them, just makes them better. good luck, and try to avoid contacting anyone with your lips or sharing drinks while you have an outbreak ETA: after this disease kills you, can i have your guns? |

Oral form of herpes. Contagious by contact with open sores. Maybe contagious even when asymptomatic. Outbreaks induced by sunburn, windburn, allergies, trauma (you), phases of the moon, etc. Don't kill yourself or anything; something like 90% of the adult population has been exposed at some point. Most people are asymptomatic.
Edit: Oops, I guess you have canker sores. Totally unrelated. Try changing your toothpaste brand. |

Try L-Lycine. I believe its an amino acid that can help reduce the incidence of mouth ulcers/cold sores. You can find it at Wal-Mart.

I understand that it is embarrassing Greg, but it's important to realize that you really do have Herpes, and it is VERY contagious!!! 
Looks like you understand, just be careful around others ETA: Chances are that you have contracted HPV as well. I would schedule an HPV test ASAP!!!! 9 out of 10 people that have Herpes, also have HPV. It doesn't usually show up in regular STD tests. You need to take a specific HPV test...good luck man. |

I'm no doctor, but I don't believe this is correct. Wait a minute, didn't your post title originally say "cold sores?" |

...and you said you bumped your lip and now you have another one. It's Herpes for God's sake!! You also called them cold sores - which IS >Herpes !! Get a test and quit arguing about it. You don't want to accept it...it's called DENIAL! Just don't pass it on to anyone because you're telling yourself it's something that it isn't. |

To be sure, I'd go see a doc. If they're truly canker sores, then they are NOT caused by herpes simplex 1, and NOT contagious. Best to make sure though.

Cancor sores are those little white hard round things inside your cheek and elsewhere inside your mouth, etc.
Cold sores are on the lips or right around the outside of the mouth. Cold sores = Herpes Simplex A. It's not an STD, but it is a form of Herpes. The STD is Herpes Simplex B. Cold sores are highly contageous during outbreaks. Cankers aren't.
Um, everything he described about it indicates it's canker sores. I used to call them cold sores too until I learned the difference. But to be safe, I'd see a dermatologist. |

Pack a bit of salt between your lip and the canker sore. It'll burn a bit but the sore will be gone within a day. |

I've found that they happen with a trauma (bumped lip) and a depressed immune system, generally from a lack of proper sleep, and/or vitamin deficiency.
- step up the oral hygiene - salt/salt water rinse, or a high alcohol content mouthwash - eat some proper meals - get some sleep |

Those are cold sores not canker sores. He's probably talking about aphthous stomatitis, painfule sores inside the mouth that are NOT contagious. |
