Is this herpes?

Posted , 5 users are following.

starting yesterday i had irritating sensation on my bottom lip and realized there is white bump on it. I usually am a person who pops pimples as soon as i see them so i did the same and today i feel like i should not have popped it because it does not look like pimple whatsoever.

    it sort of does in the first picture - looks like a few sores but i cant say for sure. if you've played with a lip bump its sure to look worse than it would if you left it alone. probably just an irritated lip

      you cant get pimples on your bottom lip. we dont have hair follicles on our lips so its impossible. you can only grow a pimple where there is hair. our lips are hairless. thats herpes
