    Sounds like a cold sore. You can get it any number of ways- a sunburn, kissing someone who has a cold sore, drinking after someone who has a cold sore, if your mouth touched the glass in the same place theirs did, lots of things. Best thing for it is to use abreva or some other cold sore medication and take L-Lysine tablets daily to keep them from recurring.
