"My baby has been in contact with a child who has a cold sore, what should I do?"

It is important to monitor your baby's general condition for any potential symptoms that may arise after being in contact with a child with a cold sore. Symptoms can appear at any time, as the virus responsible for cold sores can remain dormant in the body for a long period before becoming active. Keep a close eye on your baby's health and consult a healthcare professional if you notice any concerning signs.
