Painful rash near mouth
I had mango and shortly after this rash appeared near mouth all of a sudden. This is painful like any painful acne upon touching. I am confused as to why this happened and how to treat it.

That is herpes labialis or cold sore, a viral infection. It is very common but requires early treatment to prevent and reduce recurrence. Please consult for the prescription
