There does not seem any specific reason to cause them, but sod`s law says they will come at the wrong time so maybe there is an underlying stress reason. I now keep a tube of Superdrug Lip & Cold Sore cream in the fridge and apply it at the very first tingling sensation. At least this has kept me clear of the nasties.
i take vit c with zinc and that seems to worked i haven't had one for i think at least a year now
Vitamin C works like a treat.
Start taking it NOW, making sure you buy one that is the highest dosage.

you know that cold sores are a form of herpes. Anyway are you sure these are cold sores? Sometimes it can be impetigo

If so go to docs they will put you on antibiotics, all gone :-)
