Probably nothing: Often the best treatment for a flare-up of herpes simplex on your lip is to do nothing, or use an over-the-counter topical painkiller. Your physician may offer you an oral antiviral medicine if you feel a lesion coming on, but these only shorten the course a bit, maybe.

Valtrex (valacyclovir): For recurrent oral herpes 2 grams of Valtrex (valacyclovir) as soon as symptoms begin and 2 grams 12 hours later can help reduce the duration and size of lesions. If you have a dentist with a laser in the area , laser treatments are very effective. For info click here...http://www.laserdentistbaltimore.com/mouth-ulcer-and-cold-sore-laser-treatment/
