Lip swelling with pus and soreness
Progressive swelling in lower lip over the past 4-5 days. What appeared to be a pimple/cold sore below the lip released pus. Swelling is now half of my bottom lip, around the corner and part of upper lip with soreness around entire area. I can feel tender swollen spots along jawline on that side. Inside of lip has now released pus as well, from a half inch sore and swelling seems to be going down slowly. I have had cold sores since i was a teen but never anything like this...
