Hi,
I'm a 23 year old female that gets the occasional really bad pimple. A few days ago, though, I developed a pimple on my cheek and what I thought was a pimple right below the left side of my lip. The pimple on my cheek has just about vanished at this point, while the "pimple" below my lip has swollen up and taken on a "cratered" appearance. I can't be sure if there's puss - it seems as though there is a clearish substance in the cratered area. The pimple has "crusted" a few times as well and pieces have fallen off. It's also very hard and circular. Additionally, another cratered "pimple" is starting to develop right underneath it, on the left side of my chin. It's tiny at this point, but it's definitely cratered. I'm a bit concerned because I have been exposed to oral Herpes (my boyfriend has it, and I have kissed him a few times when he's had blisters on his lips... but they appeared to be white-ish). I would appreciate any kind of help or likely diagnosis and treatment suggestions.
