What Causes Swollen Lips With White Spots On It?

I have just woken up and there are 3 little white spots on my lip and the area is swollen, the whole lip isn't swollen but it looks as though there is a bite, but I'm sure I would realise if something was sitting on my lip and biting it. do you have any dear what it is? I just squeezed the white spots and a little bit of pus came out but yeah still swollen

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern....

As per your complain it seems that if there was a bug bite leading to allergic reaction and formation of bumps ,there has been bacterial infection in that area and due to infection there is pus formation in the bumps..
You should not squeeze the bumps as it can lead to increase in infection and inflammation..
You should apply Triple Antibiotic Ointment over the bumps twice a day after cleaning with betadine solution..
Take Allegra 60 mg twice a day for 3 days..
For faster relief broad spectrum antibiotic like Amoxicillin 500 mg thrice a day can be taken for 3 days..

Hope this information helps..

If you find the answer helpful please give me a Five Star Review and click on found the answer helpful as a token of appreciation..

Thanks and regards..
