Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I've had blisters on my lips for over two weeks now, and initially, I thought it might be herpes. I've been using Virest, but I haven't seen any improvement. I don't have any other illnesses or symptoms, just these persistent lip blisters with small cuts. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?
