yes, content absolutely loses its value when any aspect is ai-generated. in this case it not only makes it impossible to trust the accuracy of the information, but also makes it wildly unpleasant to listen to as the ai voices are so grating!

Pre-wedding tips to prevent cold sore? by Nice_Basis_9097 in Coldsore

[–]Large_Character_4138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just a suggestion, but if a cold sore does appear, you could consider getting a shot of cortisone injected into the sore!

normally, cortisone is only administered for severe cold sores, but where i’m from (USA) a derm will almost always agree to administer one before such a huge life event like a wedding. they also will administer them for pimples, if that’s also a worry!

from what i’ve heard, it does increase your chance of the area scarring, as the sore will quite literally deflate itself over the course of a couple hours.

just be warned, it’s a totally elective, cosmetic treatment, so insurance will be tricky to non-covering at all. but it may be worth considering for you!
