Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of waking up with red bump under the nose and has now blisters, it itches without any fever.
You had it the similar one 1 year before at the same place.

This indicates this is herpes simplex that is HSV 1 and occurs whenever your immunity goes down, as of today as exhibited as sneezing and running nose , may be flu.
Take rest.
Take warm fluids
Take antihistamines and Paracetamol for symptomatic relief and anti-oxidants for good recovery.
