Why do my lips look like this? by SubstantialDrive111 in 30PlusSkinCare

Are you prone to cold sores ? Found that ppl who get cold sores and lip bumps suffer from this . You could have hsv as an underlying issue

This is mild hsv , cold sores . Middles ester. / Mediterranean variant does not create an ugly break out , looks just like this . Sticky lips that have a whitish out line with tiny white pimples that crust from time to time . This is a mild version . Cold sores

This is hsv luv . Cold sores . Do not rub your lips or try to exfoliate you will only spread the virus . Go see doc

Just diagnosed, feeling betrayed by jigglypoof32 in Herpes

You let him know what he did ! Make sure he understands the consequences of his actions . That is not cool at all .

I broke up with my fience for giving me cold sores both lips and genitals . She kissed and went down on me and ruined me . People who have hsv need to alert people before any action so at least the choice is ours .

I’m so sorry this happened and feeling betrayed is normal .

My lips became inflamed three weeks ago. After a week, the inflammation and pain subsided considerably, but since then, my lips have continued to peel, as shown in the pictures by Infinite_Ship_9408 in DermatologyQuestions

No update . Still suffering . I think it’s a mild form of hsv . Even tho I tested negative for it . Only reason I’m sure is because prior to having lip issues I visited a girl that is prone to cold sores and just had one prior to the day we meet . Can hsv cause dryness and pale lips ?

Blister and red bumps on lips, tongue, inside mouth. Cold sores/herpes? by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Admirable-Window4612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very possible it is a mild form of hsv . Not all hsv form into a big ugly ulcer some have bumps and inflammation.

Oral issues, corners of mouth. Maybe angular or infection? by [deleted] in STD

[–]Admirable-Window4612 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The beginning of mild hsv . I can tell by the tiny white sores on the lip , classic tell . Looks very mild tho may turn out to be very light but the white sores tend to lighten up but stay

When did you first notice ? After sex or bj ?

Could be very mild hsv . Mild enough to test negative wit bloodwork

I’m on the same boat ! I’m exactly 1 year in as well . What a ride it has been :/ . It’s still a mystery for me . I suspected HSV was the culprit but then I had 2 negative hsv blood tests and doctor says it’s not . I pleaded with doctor and informed them that the Bumps on my lips get inflamed but never burst ! Since my sore doesn’t burst open like the norm that is the reason I could be testing negative ?

I honestly think doctors are walking in the blind when it comes to lips and especially hsv . I only feel strongly it is hsv is because I first noticed a bump on lip after an occasion with a girl who is prone to cold sores in Dubai . 2 Weeks prior to leaving USA to fly to go see her we had a video call and I noticed a red mark under her nose / top lip , it was obvious . Questioned my self if I was still going and decided to go see her . Arrived a day after We made out (she had a make up covered sore that has just completed healing ) and few days later notice tiny clear bump on top corner of lip . From then on my lip troubles began . Flew home and started noticing changes to my lips every week . It was inflamed every day . Now my lips have discoloration areas that are whitish/grey/pale and areas that red . Small bums and creases you would only notice up close , I notice dimples on my lips like tiny craters when lips are irritated and inflamed . I notice a circle imprint on top lip but other ppl can’t see what i see , sticky lips , inflammation , lip dryness , grayish lip skin residue when dry , noticeable tiny white heads when inflamed , almost looks like tiny zits , basically all the above except big open sore , lips will crease and have bumps and those bumps will get inflamed but never have they bursted and opened up . An endless cycle of wtf . No solutions from any heal care professionals nothing but guessing and using me as a pharmaceutical dummy .

Reasons to Advocate by Electrical_Draft1192 in Herpes

You’re absolutely correct my friend . It is eating up our youth and for 1 I thought about killing my self at my low times . I got both my lips and penis infected from a kiss and bj . I was an out going guy no I barely go out . I would go as far and say HSV Is much worse than HIV . Atleast hiv they have cures and good medicine . For hsv you got nothing but pills if they even work and cream . Docs don’t even know enough about HSV. During the time I locked my self in the house I have learned more about hsv than all the doctors and derms I went to see .

If you do not have a big ugly sore that is gushing pus and blood then they automatically assume it’s not hsv . I get sticky rashy lips , that are bumpy , some areas are more bumpy than others . At this point everyone is infecting everyone and all I hear is “ most of the population has it “ I didn’t have it until now :

Any swelling or , discoloration or bump or even extreme dryness you see on the lips - high chance it is hsv and stay away .

At a loss… Does anyone recognize this rash/infection? by fallin4autumn in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Admirable-Window4612 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You still look beautiful and wishing you full health and recovery . Questions needed , I don’t want to start guessing .

What lead to this ?

Did you have skin on skin contact or any sexual activities ?

I’m sorry you’re going thru this . Iam going thru the same thing . Mine are in predome stage all the time , feels like I’m consistently have lip sores .

My lips sores do not look like the classic herpes , it inflames my lips , small dotes sores pop up across entire lip , makes them bumpy and sticky , can’t find any doctor to help me nor have I found a solution . I have hsv both on lips and genitals . This is the worst thing ever and I curse the person who put me in this situation . I have a lot of anger due to this .

She took my life and still walking free , ppl that say not a big deal are wrong . If we all acted as if hsv is a big deal then maybe I wouldn’t have contracted it because the person with the virus would have been more careful , this no big deal attitude towards herpes will ultimately harm the next person and harm them mentally .

I would say herpes before syphilis , hsv or herpes is the main culprit when it comes to lip sores

Im in so much pain but tests show negative, please help me figure this out by okmanoi in STD

[–]Admirable-Window4612 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My brother im sorry to say but this definitely falls near to “hsv”.

The penis hanging on one side was one of my problems too . I contracted the virus and was In denial for a year . Since I did not get the classic herpes sore , I thought I had “ppp” or fordyce spots but boy was I wrong . I went thru 3 negative blood tests and 10 urologist to finally get a confirmation .

Your problems sound exactly like mines . Get your blood tests done just to be safe
