Small painless bump on inner lip. Canker sore or herpes?
I had a freak out a few weeks ago after finding out someone that I am seeing has HSV-1. I have been tested for it before and I do not have it so I felt better. I have seen her again and although the kiss was very brief no saliva. A few weeks later I notice I have a bump on my inner lip. You would have to flip my lip on the left corner up in order to see the bump on the side lining of my lip. It does not sting, itch, burn and it is only one bump. Not a cluster but I am worried that it could be the starting stages of something. The bump is pretty much the same pinkish color as the inside of my lips. Could anyone let me know? Think I was getting more comfortable but now I guess
This doesn't sound l8ke a cold sore at all. I wouldn't worry. Most outbreaks would happen within a week and a cold sore progresses into a fluid filled blister type lesion in a day or two
