Cold sores can be very annoying, embarrassing, and socially incapacitating. Why wait for it to happen to you? There are some practical things you can do to protect yourself from contacting the cold sore virus, or at least keep cold sores from recurring if you already have them. Here are some tips.

Safe sex. Using condoms is rated as the top method to prevent the transmission of herpes simplex infection. But there is an even more effective way: abstinence. Though condoms effectively prevent the spread of HSV and other sexually transmitted diseases, they do not guarantee 100 percent safety. The best way is still to either not engage in sexual activities at all, or at least defer engaging in sexual activities until your cold sore heals.

Lip balms. Studies show that using lip balm helps prevent orofacial infection. Regular lip balms cost less than $2. There are also specialty lip balms designed to prevent dryness, prevent triggers and inhibit viral replication in people who have already suffered from cold sores. These lip balms claim to dramatically reduce recurrence.

Hygiene. Stay away from the personal belongings of a person who has cold sores. Do not share utensils, towels, clothes, and other items with an infected person. Also be sure to wash your hands regularly either with soap or cleansing hand gels. About five to eight times per day is enough. Wash more often if you accidentally touch the affected area.

Overall fitness. You are also more likely to get a cold sore if your body's immune system is weak. So always get enough sleep and eat a balance diet. Eat healthy meals high in vitamin C and other immune-boosting vitamins. Engage in activities that let you get a physical workout, and avoid stressing about little things.
