[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anybody who has had chicken pox caries the virus. They go hand in hand. Flare ups are usually caused by stress or compromised immune system. I have gotten flare ups when I've had a bad cold. I am not the type of nanny to kiss or share food with my charges though. Also, I had more flare ups whe I was younger, rarely get them after I turned 30 or so. It would not be a deal breaker for me unless she were constantly picking at it.[/quote] Fever blister = cold sore = Herpes simplex virus (HSV) Chickenpox = varicella zoster virus (VZV) They are not the same and no, anyone who has had chickenpox does not have herpes. Just a late PSA. [/quote] I think PPs were confusing cold sores with shingles. If you get chicken pox, you can get shingles. If you get cold sores, you can spread herpes both orally and to genitalia.[/quote]
