A member asked:

Had one bump on my lip line in 2019. it never showed up before or again but it did leave a scar.i think it was a pimple because it didnt feel or look like a cold sore(pain,itchy) now im anxious if it was. i was wondering if you could tell by the scar?

Even if it was herpes cold sore, that is not a cause for concern. More than half of the world population has it.
