    I don't think it looks like a herpes lesion. On the other hand, I once had a lesion similar to yours and my dentist told me it was called mucocele.

    He explained that it is a retention of mucus due to a lesion that compresses the duct of the minor salivary glands.

    If you have the opportunity, check with your dentist.
