Fever blister

Krissy

I've never had one and now i do. I'm guessiing it's stress related, but damn it hurts. How do i get it to go away quicker? I'm using a ointment on it, but it doesnt seem to be getting better. I'm scared because i don't want my 13 month old daughter to touch it or me accidently kiss her and she some how contract a horrible illness from it. (I've read horror stories about shit like that)
