“As” per your clinical history is concerned and from your description it is viral infection so do a physical examination by your dermatologist. You can also share your skin image here. For viral infection your doctor may prescribe you anti viral like[acyclovir] for 10 days.you can do few things at home which may help-

1)Avoid skin to skin contact with others while blisters are present
2)Avoid sharing personal items like utensils, towels, etc among family members
3)Always keep your hands clean by washing in soaps. Drink cleaner water.
4)Cut a garlic clove into halves. Crush one-half and apply it on the affected area. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat the process three to five times a day.
5)Dip a cotton ball or cotton swab in 3% hydrogen peroxide solution. Apply it on your cold sore and leave it on for a few minutes. Do this every few hours.
6)Take 1,500 mg L-Lysine supplements daily to help keep the herpes virus dormant. During an outbreak, take 1,500 mg three times a day. You can also use creams, but oral lysine is considered more effective.
7)Take[multivitamin capsules and b complex with iron regularly] at bed time for 6 months for mouth sores.You can rinse mouth with salt, baking soda, and hydrogen peroxide.
