Lip Staph infection: Be sure you consult a physician about the sore pimple because it can be a staph infection that should be treated with antibiotics right away. Any infection occurring in the area of your face formed by the corners of the mouth and top of the nose can easily travel to the brain and cause a worse infection there.

My lips are swollen, sore and bright red with a red border round them. Also tiny white pimples. I don't think it's herpes. It isn't itchy.
