What Causes Bumps On My Mouth?

I have some bumps on my mouth and i do not know what it is. I have never had it before. Its on the corner of where my two lips meet so you cant really see it. I hurts when I open wide and feels very dry. It also looks kinda pink and irrated. I havent kissed any one or any thing like that (if that information helps). So is it herpys or a pimple? or what?

thanq for your query
yes it could be herpes.
herpes is a viral infection. occurs through slight contact which one may not be aware of. it usually subsides within a week. however, it appears again especially in summer, when you have fever or feel stressed.
apply acyclovir ointment. you will feel irritated, do not squeeze it.

Thanks for using health Care magic.

Read your query.

Angular chelitis is the lesion which is present in your case in the corner of the mouth. It usually occurs due to may factors including include nutritional deficiencies, dry mouth and also lip-licking habit.

Taking multivitamin oral B-complex vitamin + Zinc supplement like Cap Becosule-Z once daily for 3-4 weeks may help you.

Cream like Clotrin -B twice daily will be beneficial. Have a good nutrition.

If still persistent consult your local dentist.

Hope this was useful.
Thanks and regards.
