i just popped a clear small blister in the inside of my mouth on the bottom lip and i am afraid it is herpes and i shared a ciggarette with someone who has genital herpes and they are not my sexual partner just a roommate i live with. i asked a doctor about a herpes test and she said if you had chicken pox it will come back positive.   Well, is it herpes?


This discussion is related to Rash and blisters inside my mouth.

Hello,
Herpes rarely presents with blisters inside the mouth except in some cases in children. This blister can be a mucocele even. It is a rubbery, bubblelike painles swelling. It is usually inside the lower lip,under the tongue or the inside of mouth and caused mainly by biting the lips or trauma during eating of food.

Usually it goes away on its own but if persists then it may require treatment. Hope it helps. Take care and regards.
