Herpes?

Hey I had unprotected sex about 9 months ago and have been mostly fine until recently I started having a burning lip pain and now it seems to be some sore like bumps appearing on my upper lip. I also have little white bump clusters on my lip but I believe those to be normal because I’ve had them for a long time. I’ve been getting tested regularly for stds and as recently as the 21st of last month I’ve been clear of everything including herpes. The lip pain seems to come and go with however dry my lips are and as long as they don’t become too dry it doesn’t hurt too much. My main concern is with a flat area on my lip that seems to be turning into a sore. I also have dated someone who had HPV I don’t know if that makes any difference. Thanks for the help!

If a sore/blister appears, go to an urgent care and get it swabbed. Sounds like chapped lips.
