Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Hello,
Thanks for the query,

You might be suffering from herpes labialis.

Your description matches with that.

It is a viral infection and you need treatment with anti virals like acyclovir.

Also take an antihistamine tablet.

This will give you some relief.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
