Question about Herpes
Hi Doc,
About 3 1/2 months ago I had oral sex. About 2 days later, I started to get little clusters of white bumps on the top of my upper lip. I also got inflamaton These bumps eventually spread to the sides and part of my lower lip. They are painless as I can feel them with lip. I had them for over 3 months and they don't go away. I get a lot of irration in the corners of my mouth. I feel sometimes like tingling and buring sensation but I never get I never lessions other than the group of little white bumps that are on the sides my lips. I usually feel this almost everyday.
I took an IGM test and it was equivicol at .95 on a scale of 1.09 being postive and > .90 being negative three weeks later and at 10 weeks I took the IGG and I was negative. They told me to retake the IGG in 3 more months. I have talked to 3 doctors and they tell me that its not herpes and that it is something else but they dont know what it is. I have not seen a dermatologist yet though. Do you think that it could be something other herpes like a bacteria or fungal infection that I have still after several 3 1'2 months. I
I really appreciate your help.

This isn't herpes. Following up with the dermatologist is the best course of action.

Herpes wouldnt stay in a outbreak on the same spot of the lip for 3 1/2 months.
