Swollen Lip?

I have a small pimple close to the left of the lip. It is causing it to be inflamed and wondered if it was HSV. I also know it can be caused by poor diet and Vitamin B deficiency. This has happened to me 3 times in the last year. Any ideas on what it could be?

I appreciate it! It is not on my lip however, it is just underneath it.

Hi, many people have hsv1 from childhood and most always the outbreak would be on the soft lip tissue not the side of the mouth. Of couse having a blood test would confirm your hsv status.
