Itchy red spot on lip, peels off and cycles again. last year it spread from up lip to lower but suddenly disappeared;after months is back. what is it?

Herpes sore: Whenever there is a lesion on the lips that comes and goes and leaves a red site it is most likely herpes simplex sore. It is a virus that is transmitted from person to person and stays in the person and gets reactivated by stress.
