Large Blister On The Lower Lip. Have Swelling, Pus Formation, Sore Throat And Numbness In The Chin

Hi i have a large blister on my lower lip. In the centre of the lip not the edge. It starts as a pain not a tingle. It then goes red swells up and then develops a honey coloured puss in it. It is starting to crust but it is so sore. It is the 4th time i have had this and it is always in exatly the same spot. This time i also have small white spots on my upper lip and a numb sensation all around my chin and lower lip. I am also suffering from a sore throat and a sore mouth. The roof of my mouth in particular. I am 35 female. I am not on any medication. I am 5'2" and weigh approx 7 1/2 stone. Thanks

Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
as your history it is cystic degeneraton off lip
you have to get your cyst removed as this will trouble you again and again
when it is filled with fluid it hurts and when it ruptures crust forms
numbnss is due to pressure effect
so advised for surgical excision of cyst

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

You have not stated your personal habits, or co-morbidities
If it is occurring in the same place, it MUST be subjected to biopsy.
Examination by dentist / surgeon may clinch the diagnosis...Blood counts and immune problems may have to be checked...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
