Impetigo or herpes: Without a photo it's tough to say for sure, but high on the list would be impetigo (yellow crusted), herpes simplex, varicella (chicken pox), contact dermatitis, drug reaction, or other bacterial infection.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Canker sores?: If they don't touch the skin area, they are likely canker sores. There is no sure cure for them but they will usually subside in 10 days or less.  Local anesthetic may help. My mother's remedy: Apply table salt to them. It may sting for a few moments.

Question 3

i have small non pussfilled bump on my top lip. its not itchy or painful. its not red or white or yellow. would could it be its in the middle ?

Accepted Answer

Mucocele possibly: The bump on your lip is probably a mucocele. It is caused when the duct to a minor salivary gland gets clogged or traumatized and the saliva backs up forming a fluid filled bump. They are most common on the lower lip but can occur elsewhere in the mouth as well. Small ones can resolve on their own. Large ones (as shown here) require surgical removal by and oral surgeon.

Herpes Simplex?: Abreva is an over the counter medication used to treat cold sores. Abreva will shorten the healing time. If the sores get worse or do not go away make an appointment with a doctor.

Infected cyst?: Infected cyst or hair follicle iikely.  If large see a doc.  If very small try a spot of bacitracin after cleaning it with mild soap and water.  Hot compresses for 30 minutes can help. If it is larger than a pea in size, get seen.  Don't pop it, you can cause the infection to spread.  If it hurts more, or you have fever, or it rapidly increases in size, go to ER.
