Lucie B asked:


I haven’t kissed or had sex with anyone or anything….

On the inside of my lip there is a sort of pus filled bump that has been there for nearly two weeks. Sometimes it is clear looking, in the begining it sorta looked like blood was in there, and often times it looks filled with a white pus.
It doesn’t hurt or anything.

What is it?

   You need to get that check out by your doctors to make sure what it is. It could be nothing but its better to be safe then sorry. You never know these days.

   It sounds like a canker sore. You do not have to kiss or have sex with anyone to have a canker sore or a cold sore. With cold sores you can contract them as a result of your body trying to fight off viral infection. Canker sores–are mouth ulcers…they can be result of hormonal change, stress, dietary deficiencies, etc.
   You treat canker sores with antibiotics, such as Nystatin which is also used to treat thrush. Don’t eat any spicy or hot foods…this will make it worse.

   Hope this helps and that you feel better.
