A member asked:

My mum has a bump on her lip, she is convinced it is a pimple and not a cold sore. not on the edge of the lip but right on the lower lip. what is it? difference? i don't want to get it because i have an extreme phobia of getting anything on my face?

If your mom's problem is oral herpes, you are not at risk unless you kiss her when she is having an outbreak. Don't worry about it.
