Be checked: Or send us a picture. It may be an outbreak of the cold sore virus which the earlier it is seen and treated, the better. All the best.

Bumps on lip: Do they tingle or hurt? Are they fluid filled? may be herpetic lesions. Could try lysine over the counter 500 mg 3 tabs a day x 5 or follow up with doctor urgent care for acyclovir/ valtrex (valacyclovir) Do not rub them do not touch and wash your hands after touching because they are very infectious and can spread to eyes or other areas which is dangerous.
