Q: I always find small blisters on my lips. There are random small painful swelling on my lips area too. What is this?

A:In herpes labialis tiny blisters in groups appear on the lips and adjacent areas. The affected area may be slightly swollen. This condition recurs from time to time. You could be suffering from this condition. However, this is a self limiting disorder and the attack normally resolves in about a week, unless the body resistance is very low or if it gets secondarily infected or complicated.
