I think it’s a zit at least. It looked like a small cold sore before so I started using abrevea and chapstick medicated, and it didn’t get any smaller, but it was very small to begin with, and now it has a white head on it. Is it a zit or a cold sore?

I’ve got this little icky thing right where my lips meet at the corner. It hasn’t gotten big (you can’t even see it with my mouth closed), but it hasn’t gone away either. Do cold sores keep getting bigger and grosser as time goes on? I’m wondering if it’s just a zit that won’t go away b/c it’s always getting moisture…And yes, I know this is an icky question.
I think I’ve had it for a week now. I don’t mess with it all day- then at home when I’m watching TV I mess w/it w/o realizing it. Will Abreva hurt it if it’s a zit? I’ve used Neosporin and Clearasil.
I love Bobfartly. She’s special. Honestly, I can’t tell the difference b/c I’ve never HAD a cold sore in my 25 years of life (SO not junior high). The ones I’ve seen on people are way more unsightly (lol- not to brag).

We keep Abreva around in case someone gets a fever blister/cold sore in the Winter, but yesterday I pulled it out and dabbed it on a zit that had popped up. It seemed to work fast in shrinking the zit.

So can I do that everytime I get a zit? What in the Abreva made the zit dry faster and is there an actual acne spot treatment that work just as well?

Thanks!
