Oral Herpes

Lauren questioned:


i have two very small spots on my lower lip that i can’t tell if they might be herpes or just pimples. As far as i know i dont have herpes. Can someone clarify the difference there would be between a pimple on your lip line and herpes? The spots arent very noticable, just to me because i can feel them. they are a modest bit painful. they look like deep pimples. if i push out from the surrounded by of my mouth on them, they kind of turn white.
ALSO…they aren’t in cluster. there’s just two of them about an inch away form eachother

I went out drinking the additional nighttime and drank from a friends(whos a frat brother) beer. 3 days later i now have a dryness/burning above my lip. Ever since i drank from the beer i have been paranoid i got herpes. The feeling above my lip is scaring me. I live in a very cold and dry climate and was outside a lot of the nighttime. I also play with my facial stubble and sometimes irritate the skin. Is it possible this is herpes? Or is it an irritation from the dryness, dehydration and rubbing of my stubble?
also, the sensation isn’t really localized. it seems to be the whole area above my lip rather than one particular spot.
And there is no visible red rash at all

Lucas Donavan questioned:


I used to get cold sores frequently when I was young, more recently I very rarely have outbreaks on the same spot on my lower lip. But I just got one under my nose, a place I haven’t had any sores in maybe ten years. Also a week previous to this outbreak I got a pimple or razor burn in the exact spot under the nose and I popped it. My questions is does this mean I was reinfected? I haven’t kissed anyone or any kind of imtimate friend with anyone recently. Is it possible to get reinfected with the same kind of herpes? Did this have anything to do with the pimple?

Last month I grew a cluster of pimples on chin… But at first it started off looking like a huge red pimple and I started picking at it to make it pop so that it would go away. That’s when I realized that there were about 2 or 3 pimples clustered together (at least that’s what I reckon they were). It started bleeding when I picked at it and puss was coming out of it at the same time… It early scabbing a few days later after continuously picking at it and I don’t know if I’m being paranoid, but I’m apprehensive they might be herpes? I’m not sure because I break out a lot…especially after I started college… But just today, I got another huge pimple to the left of my chin, but it doesn’t seem like clusters of pimples or whatever…It’s just huge and red and hurts just a modest bit when i press on it. Can someone please help me out??? Thanks!!
