Will A White Spot Left Behind After A Cold Sore Heal Completely?
I had a cold sore last week and I got abreva to get rid of it ; it went away , but now there is a white patch of skin where the cold sore was... Will it go back to its original color or will it stay like this ? And I don t wear cosmetics so I can t cover it up ...
