Fever Blister!
Yesterday I got a fever blister on the side of my mouth, right where the apple of my cheek is. I know that they're contagious and can spread to other people, but what I want to know is if it could possibly spread all over my face. Let's say I'm moisturizing and I have to rub my entire face while having touched the infected area. Would I break out in blisters on my nose or forehead or my other cheek? Please help!

Hi Thanks for your query. They could be infectious. Avoid rubbing that area. Moisturize the rest of the face and then the affected area.
