Could this be herpes? Please help.

Alright so about a month & a half ago. I had a pimple outside my lipline & I popped it but then it turned into a big red ugly bump & then it scabbed over. I would always put ice on it or put toothpaste when I went to sleep & left it on over night to dry up. But then after the scab finally came off then I was left with a kinda reddish brown bump at the corner of my mouth outside the lip. I kinda looks like a bump. I'm scared idk what it is. It doesn't hurt or anything like that it just bothers me when I look at it in the mirror.

Doesn't sound like a lesion. I would get it looked at just for your peace of mind

Its not really a lesion anymore or was. I just have like dark kinda swollen lump there.
Surely doesn't sound hsv related at all.
