ok i put this on the herpes forum and they didnt get what i was saying
here goes:
for a few months i have been breaking out in my chin area
i knew it was nothing related to std's since i had not given a guy oral sex in years...they would really come to a head during my period but i cant get rid of this acne...
anyway a few weeks ago i gave this guy oral...though brief i did it...i noticed after i got a pimple on the corner of my mouth...not on my lip but right on the edge of it...now i dont know how long it was there...could have been there BEFORE but not sure...so it came to a head...i popped it and then it came back...
is that herpes...????i mean it might just be related to the rest of the pimples on my chin
and i know ppl get coldsores or fever blisters that can be herpes related but the simplex kind...NOT the std kind...my sister gets those all the time
i guess my question is how do you know you have a PROBLEM
also isnt herpes supposed to be raw...and then scabby...? this is like a regular pimple...it comes to a white head...but is red around it...

Hi Vianna, it definitely sounds like a regular pimple, with the white head and the redness. I really don't think there is anything wrong there.

hey there,
i've had the same problem before. It gets red, and sometimes has a white head. That's just a pimple on your lips. Its common if you touch your face alot. Its from the moisture on your hands/face.
if it gets worse, go to the doctor.
