Common Questions and Answers about Swollen lip with sore

swollen

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 m tn The symptoms that you are describing are that of a cold sore. Do not kiss while you have this, because it is very contagious when the virus is active. You can get over the counter medications for cold sores. But unfortunately there is no cure. It is the Herpes Zoster virus that causes it, and once we have had it, it lies dormant in our body. Chicken Pox and Shingles is another form of the same virus.
Avatar f tn Yesterday afternoon I had a swollen spot on my lip right where the inside and outside of the lip meet because I'm a bit careless and had been mindlessly bitting at it. I woke up and the swelling had gone down quite a bit but it is still slightly swollen. I looked in a mirror and was terrified to see that there is a off white patch where the swelling was. It was not white before. It's a slightly different texture than the rest of my lip and it tastes metalic; like blood.
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 f tn Now, for the past 6 weeks my tongue has been white and I have a swollen Frenulum under tongue. Sore throat and inside of bottom lip is raw as well. It’s not thrush. My physician said that my urine test 2 weeks ago showed ureaplasma, but he didn’t seem concerned by this. What’s wrong with me? Should I test for something else?
Avatar f tn m scared. Is there some kinda treatment, cure? And what is the proper name to call this lip sore or thing what ever it is. Does it go away? And how long does it take?
Avatar n tn I have frequent canker sores, but dont get cold sores. My lip is swollen and feels strange and not sure if a sore is coming. Thanks.
Avatar m tn The only things that I knowingly am allergic to are lactose and chocolate, both of which cause me to purge. Only that side of my lip is swollen, my tongue and throat feel fine. Also, if it helps, I'm a musician (woodwinds and strings), and I haven't come into contact with any unusual instruments. I've only played my flute, clarinets and violin this weekend.
Avatar f tn ( i thought it was a cold sore ) . When i woke up the next day my top and bottom lip was swollen , flaky , itchy and yellow crust . It was dry and you can see the dry skin comming off and it felt like sand paper with little bumps . please let me know asap what this is !
Avatar m tn i tried to move but was not sure if the mark made contact with my lip. on april 22 my upper lip became swollen and red, i went the doctor and they said it was a coldsore( i nevered had a cold sore ever). i was shocked and they gave me some antiviral pills for 2 days. now im really stressed and worried about genital herpes, if she was infected.
Avatar f tn On Monday (it is now Saturday) I woke up with the left corner of my bottom lip swollen. I assumed I bit it in my sleep because the inside of my lip was a bit scabbed. I'm worried it is a cold sore. I have been getting cold sores basically my entire life but I am unsure if this is a cold sore because it never blistered.

Avatar f tn Until around New Years Eve night my lip piercing was accidentally hit which left my lip very sore and swollen next morning I notice that the lump under my chin had gotten bigger. I took the piercing out the swelling went down it's still a bit sore at the top of my bottom lip and slightly yellow around the whole where the piercing had been.
Avatar f tn On that Tuesday I woke up to a sore/swollen throat with post naisal drip, and my lip still tender and swollen, but not as swollen. I took some benadryl and the sore throat/ drip went away. Later in the morning I started experiencing diarrhea. Nothing horrible, but it made me decide to go to urgent care. They said it was an allergic reaction and prescribed an epipen. I declined because I have no insurance. Since then I've seen another doctor who thinks its hsv 1.
Avatar m tn Within 10 days, I experienced the worst flu-like symptoms in my life. I had rash, thrush, horrible sore throat, swollen tonsils, high fever and chills, and had the most horrible night sweats in my life. All symptoms disappeared after 14 days. Unfortunately, my swollen lymph nodes remained. 5 years ago, I'd caught mono, so therefore, my doctor ruled out mono.
Avatar f tn My throat has been sore for the past 4days. My body feels really weak and tired. Tonsils are swollen and painful and I have difficulty in swallowing food or drinking water. I took ibuprofen for easing the pain but it comes after the effect of medicine wears off. Before I got this, I have recurring tonsilitis and my left tonsil regularly produces pus which I just drain using cotton swab or my clean finger if I feel there is something in it.
Avatar m tn I am a women and 4 weeks ago I had oral sex with someone, woke up in the morning and she had a cold sore all over his bottom lip. She said she felt no tingling or pain but had an allergic reaction to a lipstick and this caused it and it was chelitis not cold sores.

Avatar f tn One alarming thing is the when I touch and irritate my lower lip, the same cold sore shaped areas are becoming red and swollen, roughly three of them on my bottom lip. I saw a dermatologist but it was a day when the bumps had gone and when I showed him a picture of the bumps he admitted he had been looking below my lip, not on it. He brushed it off and I would just like to find out what it is and most importantly that it is not cancerous as some symptoms have suggested.
Avatar m tn Since then, I was kissing my partner throughout the day and then they performed oral sex on me that night. Today I woke up to my lip still swollen, but now with a little bit of a sore and found out from my doctor that it is indeed a cold sore. Since finding out and since the actual sore came out I have had no sexual contact or kissing.
Avatar f tn Today I have pain where gum meets the lip. My chin, cheek and jaw have become painfully inflamed. My lower lip has swollen up over the top lip. I have nothing that looks like an abscess, but symptoms are very familiar to me. Also, feverish, sore throat and dry mouth.
Avatar n tn Hey my name is Molly and im 16, Last night i had Cattage pie and Green beans together and after i ate my top Lip had swollen up and started stinging and its still swollen and stinging now. I'm very confused because i Love cottage pie and Green beans and its a dinner i have regulary and its never happened before. More of the problem:- It's only my top lip and its stinging also a bit itchy, and its dry around the lip but the lip itself isn't.
Avatar m tn I am not sure If I have ever had a cold sore, one time I developed a blister in the corner of my lip were a general practication and a school nurse said it was a cold sore. Later on when I was 18 I was in the cold for a while, felt some burning n the lip, and used some abreva, and it never developed into a blister. I am scared and worried what should I do?
Avatar f tn i am a virgin, and 2 days ago i noticed very painful sores on one of my outer lips, it is also very swollen and feels quite hard, this outer lip is alot bigger than the other, so the sores rub against my underwear when i walk or sit down. The sores are hard and a creamy colour. I also have painful sores around the bottom of my vagina and the opening is also very swollen. It generally feels itchy and sore and it is painful to walk, sit down and urinate.
Avatar m tn I am getting very frustrated. My life has been paused for 3 months because of this. I had gotten a cold sore...so i thought ...before christmas. It started out as one small red bump off center on the bottom lip. I right away freak out and start searching things to do to get rid of it. I have had cold sores before since i was 6 or maybe even younger. Anyways i start putting ice on it and then i read about salt so i put salt on it and left it there.
Avatar m tn However, I woke up today to find the peak of my upper lip slightly swollen. Here are two photos of a close-up. Can someone tell me if this is a developing cold sore or maybe some sort of allergy? http://imgur.com/a/h1cbC http://imgur.
