Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood your history.

The appearance of small patches of bumps on the side of the lower lip is definitely suggestive of herpes simplex- also called as a cold sore.
As you be knowing, there may not be any specific treatment for this.
The bombs spread out on your lips are not noticeable by others, so why to worry; and secondly these may be indicating the problem you have which has reduced your resistance power.

I would advise you the following:
Stop applying anything to the lips as nothing helps ans may in fact cause more problems as you have swollen lips too.
Take plenty of oral fluids.
Full bed rest
Consult a Doctor to find out what may be the medical probable
m that is causing these all the problems and get treated accordingly.
