A member asked:
Good morning can herpes cause lips to swell resembling an allergic reaction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: and they can be very uncomfortable. See dentist or PCP asap for Rx for antiviral meds. This should shorten the duration and lessen the severity. Best to start meds when the first symptoms appear.
