single blister/ bubble

so i have a question. for those who know a lot about herpes, is a herpes blister real easy to pop and if so it is easy, does it usually cause pain when you pop it? and when i mean easy, i mean just one attempt at popping it with my teeth. and does herpes usually have a cluster or a single blister? i recently had a bubble on my upper lip in a very unusual spot not like any of the herpes pictures i have seen on the lips. it wasnt on the corners of my lips or above my lips, just dead center on my upper lip, actually resting on my bottom lip. no pain, no redness, no pimple like blisters, just one big one that popped with the swipe of my two front teeth. just one swipe and it was gone. it obviously had liquid in it but no blood at all. and i dont really no what color liquid, clearish i wanna say. no pain at all. really weird. three weeks have passed now and there was never any scabbing on my lip. it still looks as if its trying to heal, like where the bubble was its a different shade of color than the rest of my lip, kinda pinkish. could this be just a water blister that was on my lip? or is that even possible?

i really did not plan on popping it, but it just took one swipe with my teeth.  and it didn't hurt and hardly any liquid came out. it didnt taste bad or nothing, and after three weeks of me popping it, i don't see any signs of infection in my mouth or any where else for that matter.

For goodness sake, don't pop any blisters or lesions on your body! Gross! It can lead to infection, scarring, and/or worsening of symptoms.

No one here can diagnose you. Could it be herpes? Perhaps... or one of many other things that could mimic a cold sore. See your medical provider or dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis.
