Pimple and swollen upper lip

2018-11-19 19:06:41
I recently had a pimple outside my mouth on my upper lip. As of today morning my lip has become swollen and pains when touched. After the whole day swelling has still not reduced. Would like to get it checked. What doctor should I see? Should I visit a physician or a dentist?

It may be a viral infection, it should be clinically correlate whether you had fever or not. I suggest to go to the dentist. In  the meantime you can apply mucopain ointment for pain relief.
