Herpes or allery
I had recently kissed someone 12 days ago. I have had allergic reactions on my mouth for many years from make up, lotion.I have been wearing lotion but it hasn’t bothered me for months. I now have a bump on the corner of my mouth. Wondering if Herpes. I did scrub my mouth today and that’s when the bump came and the other corner feels like when I am started to get the rash. I know a test is most accurate after 4 weeks so I can’t test yet. I am wondering if maybe the scrubbing could have causethis
