Can you get a cold sore on your jaw?

Answer 1

Outside jaw or inside jaw? Inside would be a canker sore, not a cold sore...

Canker sores vs cold sores (causes of)

Canker sores are INSIDE the mouth...mouth ulcerations linked to several things

1. streptococcus sanguis (see last source), some people take tetracycline for it (see second source)

2. crunchy or spicy or acidy foods
(ie pickles, vinegar, soda pop, tomatoes, orange juice, lemon juice, etc., italian bread (crunchy food) . Lay off the acidy and spicy foods awhile and see if that helps. One source recommends a mouth swish of equal amounts of milk of magnesia and benadryl liquid (see the next to last source)...see the first source for other swishes..

3.injury to cheek or gums or tongue (ie hard toothbrush, crunchy food, biting yourself by accident inside the mouth)

4. sodium laurel sulfate in toothpaste
(there is a toothpaste named Squigle that doesn't have it in there)

5.it is linked to families (genetic)

6.dietary deficiencies, such as low B12 and low iron

7.stress

8. allergies (food or drug)

9. menstrual periods or premenstrual syndrome (according to last 2 sources)

Cold Sores are found around the outside of the mouth and are linked to a type of herpes virus, that comes and goes with stress...acyclovir (zovirax) might help with those

Answer 4

I got diagnosed with herpes virus (type 2) about four years ago, whilst I was still in college and had a mindless one-night stand. I understand lots of young women say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a massive mistake that one time and all of a sudden it seemed like I was going to have to live with the consequences for my entire life. The worst part was feeling I could never date other men again. After all, who wants to go out with someone that has sores round her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/DvpZd everything changed.

Not only was I able to clear away all remnants of the herpes virus from my body in less than three weeks, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so blessed to write that just a week ago, in front of everyone in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!!! This method gave me back the chance to be happy and experience true love again. Now I hope that I can help others too by sharing this story.
