Burning lip for a week. could this be herpes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: It could be, especially if you see even a small area that is red, or blistered. You might just have a mild outbreak. If so, you should assume that you are contagious--both to yourself and others. Caution is advised.
