Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

UrgentCare2Go

What are Cold Sores / Herpes Labialis?

Cold sores are small, painful blisters usually caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1), commonly appearing on or around the lips.

What triggers a cold sore outbreak?

Outbreaks can be triggered by stress, illness, fatigue, sun exposure, hormonal changes, or a weakened immune system.

How are cold sores treated?

Treatment may include antiviral medications, topical creams, and symptom management techniques to reduce discomfort and duration.

Are cold sores contagious?

Yes. They are highly contagious through direct contact with the lesions or infected saliva, especially during an active outbreak.

Can I get an in-home evaluation for cold sores?

Yes. UrgentCare2Go provides private mobile evaluations, following strict hygiene protocols to prevent spreading the virus.

Are children eligible for evaluation?

Yes. Children and adults can be safely assessed, and treatment plans are tailored to age and severity of symptoms.

Does insurance cover cold sores evaluation?

Most major insurance plans cover evaluations and treatment for cold sores at in-clinic or mobile visits.

How does a telehealth visit work?

Telehealth allows providers to assess lesions visually, review symptoms, and prescribe antiviral treatments remotely if appropriate.

How long do cold sores usually last?

Cold sores typically resolve within 7–14 days, though antiviral therapy may shorten duration and relieve discomfort.

When should urgent care be sought?

Seek urgent care for severe, recurrent, or widespread lesions, or if associated with fever, eye involvement, or immune compromise.
