A few years ago my friend gave me impetigo and since then I seem to get sores at the side of my mouth really badly every now and then. I have it at the moment and it completely knocks my confidence. I also had it when I met my best friend for the first time (we met online) and I felt really self-concious. It’s awful. I’ve had it for a few weeks now and It’s just not going. And I don’t know what to do?!
I’m starting a new school in September so I want to have my confidence back.
Just so you know, I wash my face daily, and our house is very clean.
Could it be impetigo or just a cold sore? It’s big for a cold sore… but small for impetigo. So I’m not sure.
And how can I make it go away and not keep coming back? I find myself often covering my mouth. Ugh.
Thanks.
