Common Questions and Answers about Bit lip or cold sore

lip

Avatar n tn My question is does this sound like a cold sore or just a really really bad section of chapped lip? Also, I had made out with my girlfriend the other night under the impression that it was just a chapped lip and then she proceeded to give me oral sex for just a little bit. Even if this was a cold sore, does that mean I just gave myself genital herpes???? Please advise as this is a bit of a stressful situation for me. Thanks.
Avatar f tn I was pretty stressed about it and now have a cold sore under my nose, but I kissed my boyfriend on Wednesday before this new cold sore appeared and he has not had any cold sore symptoms.
Avatar m tn This time things got a bit weird. I got one cold sore not on my upper lip which is the usual spot, but one above the lip area. Anyway that did not got me worried i waited for a week and it went away (almost). Just before that one got completely healed i got another one on my upper lip usual spot. I used Zovirax to treat it and it almost went away but now i got 3 more blisters on my lower lip, which i am pretty sure are cold sores.
Avatar m tn so if a cold sore is not bleeding it is not an open wound and hiv cant be absorbed or get in, is this a correct assumption? or is a cold sore like a mucus membrane? the cold sore was probably only 12 hours old.
Avatar f tn For a little over 2 weeks I have had a slightly raised circular dry patch on my upper lip. Then I had one on the opposite side on my lower lip. And now I have a bit of scattered dryness on the other side of the upper lip. The circular dry patch is not very noticeable (slightly lighter than the rest of my lip and about the size of a pencil eraser) and not like a blister, but more like a sore, except no oozing or crusting, just a raised dry patch.
7166590 tn?1408351416 Im 5w 3days and I think I may be getting a cold sore on my lip.... ive never had one and neither has my partner so I'm not sure how I may have got it. Is it a symptom of presgnancy, and how can I stop it before it gets worse. It taste silvery and kinda tingles. My mum gets them but I havent been in contact with her for a while.
Avatar n tn It first appeared 6 days ago when all of a sudden I felt like a burning sensation and my lip felt swollen. Since then I have been putting cold sore medicine, thinking it could possibly be one starting out. I have never had one before, but my sister-in law and friend said they start out in a tingling or burning or itching sensation. So, upset, but worried, I continued the ointment. Six days later, it looks exactly the same maybe a little dry but the same.
Avatar m tn m healthy 25 year old male who has a small pimple around the middle of the mouth by the lip. I checked every available website regarding cold sore symptoms and pictures and my pimple does not look like any of them. It's just right on the lip line so its pretty visible. It started on monday night and it came to a small head so I popped it. By tuesday it was healing but still red. Today is wednesday and it looks like its still healing, though not as red as before.
Avatar n tn Alright, well, first off, since I was a child, I've been getting cracked lips on the corners of my mouth on rare occasions. I'm now 17 years old, and I still get them every once in awhile during the cold weather, or if I don't get enough hydration, but since I've been drinking lots of water, these cracked lips haven't appeared in a long time. Well, at least until recently.

Avatar m tn With the negative results would it be safe to kiss my date in about five days or am I being too paranoid, I have trouble telling a cold sore from a zit or ingrown hair on the lip?
Avatar n tn m typing this, I can only help but think it was either a pimple or an ingrown hair because there was never any sort of blistering or oozing of clear puss or anything that would indicate to me that it is a cold sore. Nevertheless, is it possible that what I just described is a cold sore?
Avatar f tn I've currently got a cold sore too on my upper lip! I got it on Saturday I'm 29wks+2 it's so annoying!
Avatar f tn try using a good lip balm, not wax or petroleum jelly (vaseline). It could be a cold sore (herpes 1) or just really bad chapped area. HSV 1 is very common. It can show up unannounced and direct sun light it known to cause it to spring up. cold sores will clear on their own in a week or so. try not to lick or chew or pick at that spot.
Avatar m tn It is now day 10 and there is an ever so slight red mark on my lip/skin above my lip line. Again never any hard scabbing or crusting, Once I popped it which was not easy to do because it seemed to be below the surface puss, blood and then some clear fuild came out. I have had pimples as a teen and as I can remember ths is how they acted. What worries me is the location, what it looked liked and how it has healed. Thanks for your advice.
Avatar f tn In november I notice two small hard bumps Under my skin above my lip- this is not unusual. This happens often because of my lip gloss. Usually I squeeze out whatever is inside and go on with my day. Normally it heals or Sometimes turns into a pimple. At Christmas one of the bumps closest to my lip became a pimple- or so I thought. It got big, but looked like a isn't pimple. I'll add I have never had a cold sore. I started to freak because it got huge.
Avatar m tn Just wondering if it is no pain does that mean it is not cold sore? if its not a cold sore cud it be a food allergy? i have noticed whenever i get them is when i binge on fast-food. right now it is 2 blemishes about 2 inches apart. they are both red and pretty huge.
Avatar n tn So I wake up the other day and have a very big, very painful cold sore on my lip. This cold sore is not the same as my other familiar friend that I have been getting very random visits from for the past 13 years; this new cold sore is huge, very painful and in a different spot. This "new" cold sore is on the opposite side of my face and is on the upper lip instead of the usual lower lip.
Avatar f tn I have a cold sore on my lip and I was coughing last night because I have a cold.i wiped my lip and then my right eye.the cold sore had a scab over it.so am I just being silly? please help.
Avatar f tn I get a bump on my lip every week...every time one goes away another is there...idk if it's a cold sore due to stress or just pimples...
Avatar m tn Bottom line is to determine if a sore on the lip is a herpes sore it would need to be swabbed and cultured. I do know that sores inside the mouth are canker sores which are not herpes sore as most often appear on the outside of the mouth and most often where the lip meets the face.
