Small bumps on the top lip, what are they?

I have a cluster of tiny bumps on my top lip. What is it?

  • This all started when I came home from school on Tuesday. I woke up on Wed. with red patches on my bottom lip, then the next day my lips were swollen and now I just have clusters of tiny bumps on my top lip. I took benedryl but that only made the swelling go down. My lips feel dry. SOMEONE HELP!

  • Answer:

    It could be from the herpes virus which causes cold sores. They can form blisters and hurt. But, they are not serious and are actually fairly common. Buy some Blistex at the drug store. Keep your lips moist. During the cooler weather we tend to get dry, chapped lips.

I am really sorry to say but you may have herpes. Did this patch of tiny bumps come with a tingling and burning sensation? Did you have any muscle spasms and soreness in the back of your head and neck area? If after another day or so they turn into blisters. Then they will crust over and form a scab. It is a very common illness. And try not to touch it because it can be very contagious. My advice to you is to go straight to the doctor. I hope you don't have that because once you have it. It's for life.

In the winter, sometimes, skin gets red, itchy and bumpy. Best thing to do is to go to the doctor.

It might just be that your lips are dry i would try to keep putting some chap stick on or if it does not work try some Vaseline if that does not help I would suggest going to see a doctor. P.S. GOOD LUCK
