First impressions can make or break an interview with a potential employer. While a cold sore may or may not reflect your work habit, it sure will leave a lasting impression on the person interviewing you. The last thing you need before a big job interview is added stress, so to avoid a cold sore before a big event like this, before to get lots of sleep and avoid common illnesses to keep cold sores under wraps.

3. Child Birth

This one is a big one. You’ll want to be your best when you welcome a new child into your life, but those suffering from cold sores need to have extra precaution. Apart from being unsightly, cold sores can be very dangerous to new born babies. The virus can easily overwhelm their immune systems and is potentially fatal. So, when you bring you baby into their new world, be sure to be cold sore free.

4. Graduation

Whether it’s from high school, university, or anything in between, graduation day is an important milestone for many people. With all the picture taking, hugging, and sometimes kissing, you’ll want to be sure a cold sore doesn’t appear. Again, the key is reducing stress and sleeping well to keep your immune system up to speed to avoid an ill-timed cold sore outbreak. Also, make sure you ask yourself, is it a cold sore or a pimple, to know how to take the appropriate action.
