Possibly cold sores?!


Question: the other day my lips got very dried out, resulting in my upper lip looking very torn up and hurting a lot, along with one of the corners cracking severely. i've been using medicated blistex like you wouldn't believe and those are finally getting better.
this morning i noticed about 6 or 7 red bumps developing on my lower lip, right in the middle. they look almost like cold sores but arent swollen, and i've never seen cold sores anywhere but the edges of someone's mouth.
i've only ever had something like a cold sore once, which was about a month and a half ago.
are these cold sores? please help.

they could b cold sores. they can appear anywhere on ur lips, not just the corners. weirdly enough u can get them in or around ur nostrils too. do not touch them. if they are not itching or tingling, don't worry too much, but if they start to, immediately put on some abreva or campho-phenique. the sooner u do it, the quicker they will heal.
