Cold sores

Hi Ashwani, I get them too. Mostly on my lower. Inner lip. I swish some lidocaine rinse around in my mouth when it hurts. Works pretty good. Just another symptom of Crohns.
 
Since starting Humira I started getting them regularly. My Dr. Put me on a daily maintenance dose of Valtrex and it so far has kept them at bay.
