A member asked:
I have a bump in the middle of my upper lip that feels like a little growth. i am wondering if it could be a cold sore.

Lip papule: If it is very recent and tender that is possible, but other causes should be considered (mucous cyst, papilloma). Cold sores also usually resolve fairly quickly, so if this has been there for a few weeks a cold sore is not likely.
