What Causes Burning Sensation On The Upper Lip?
Hello, yesterday evening around 8 I felt a burning sensation on my upper lip near my cupids bow but only for a moment. After 10 minutes when I looked in the mirror I noticed the there was a bump and ot was painful. I applied some baking soda paste then a little later some ice. I went to bed with toothpaste on it. No in the morning there is no pain but the bump is definetly there. And I feel it has enlargened. I need help!

Hi
According to your history there are two possibilities: either herpes virus infection ( most likely) or pyoderma which is a bacterial infection. I recommend you to consult a dermatologist and get yourself treated.
