Is it herpes

by Mikeneedhelp796, May 26, 2009 10:38AM
Hi, my girlfriend's cousin we believe has oral herpes. So i was a little scaried becuase they are close and share food. Well she didnt show any signs and we still did things becuase of that. About 4 days ago i woke up and had a pimple right above the center of my lip. That day i also had a very sore throat which i heard you could have with herpe outbreaks. So i popped it thinking it was a pimple. It hasnt grown back just left a little red blood dot. With alot of redness under the skin. There is no crust near the dot instead it seems to be on the edge of the redness under my skin. it sometimes burn. Theres no other pimples or anything any where else around my mouth. I was wondering if it was herpes?

Thank you,
Mike

Sometimes a pimple really is a pimple believe it or not.  

Many things can cause sore throats too.

The only thing you can do if you are concerned is to go and be seen and get checked out.

Have you ever been tested for herpes yourself to know your own status?

you need to follow up on this with your provider. It's impossible to guess what is going on online.
