Hi
It is Herpes labialis,a viral infection caused by Herpes simplex .
It is self limiting.
It occurs when the immunity becomes low in conditions like fever.
If they are severe,you should use Acyclovir tablets.Use anti inflammatory drug also.
They will come down.
Nothing to worry.
wish you good health
Regards
