You only avoid contact for one week. Natural or normal vaginal sex can be done don’t engage in oral sex. The same virus that causes cold sores also can be responsible for blisters and sores in the genital area. When you have a cold sore, you don’t want your mouth to come in contact with your partner’s genitals.

Hello lybrate-user,
you can use megaheal gel which works really good on bed sores. However you need to make sure to regularly change sides of your mother at least every two hours. It will be better if you can let her sleep on a water bed.
