LIP PIMPLE
by millaw, May 21, 2006 12:00AM
Hi Dr. Rockoff. Thank you for being a source of comfort for so many. Query: Is it possible to get pimples on the upper and lower lip and have them NOT be herpes/cold sores? Every now and again I get a pimple on my lip, sometimes on my lower lip and sometimes on my upper lip. No clustering or blistering or any precursor tingling. Just a regular pimple with a whitehead. I also get angular cheilitis in both corners of my mouth (not at the same time) at varying times (not sure if this is relevant but just a little background info.). Worried that these pimples are evidence of Herpes. Thank you.
