Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your blisters.

As per your history it seems to me you are having herpes simplex. That is small multiple blisters on lip blow lateral side of nose.

Yes these will subside of its own because they are only few and not too much spread. Mostly these lesion subside of its own, if you have associated fever and generalized body ache you may need to take paracetamol.

You can apply local antiviral cream like herpix 4 times daily if you want.
Also you can take Acyclovir 400mg four times daily after consulting your physician but in my opinion you don't need.

Hope my answer will help you and you can write to us further if you feel any need.

Regards
Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray.
