    You young guys making out with all the ladies. Sheesh.

    But no, you should hold off smoking if it irritates it.

    Im with this guy. I would say let it heal for a little while before introducing outside stimuli. No reason to accidentally prolong it.

    I agree. The discomfort will distract from the cigar and you'll end up prolonging the sore.  Best to wait.

    If you are prone to getting cold sores keep some Abreva on hand. If applied when you first get that tingly feeling it all but stops them in their tracks. Heals ones you already have quickly.  Its not cheap but worth every penny.

    Get rid of the cold sore and enjoy your cigars
