stupid little problem with weird cut thing

a few days ago i noticed that on the right corner of my lips a llittle cut start forming. it hurts. the more i opened my mouth to eat stuff the bigger it got and the more it hurt. it looks kinda gross up close and it sucks.

today i was eating some spicy soup and noticed some pain on the left corner, and lo and behold there is another one just starting out. i dont want to have this one get so big so what should i do?

i dont know how either of these started, i dont remember getting cut there. is it possible that it got really chapped or something and eventually just broke the skin?

any helpful posts will be appreciated; any stupid comments will be DELETED

its cut right where this lady is pointing in fig 1

isn't this a canker sore?

oh wow i just read it and it doesnt seem like the thing ur talking about but i thought that is what a canker sore is.

whatever it is ive had the thing you've talked about and i was able to eventually peel it off, so i dont think it's anything to worry about, idk how to stop it from getting bigger.

definitely NOT a sore, although from 15 feet away it might look like one

maybe Empatigo? or just chapped lips?
drink more water any way.keeps you hydrated

I had this once, sucks, mosturize and just wait.

Forgot the name of it.

yea probably just from chapped lips. play more poker and it will eventually go away.

Oh yea, this too!

I used to be really bad about drinking enough water, I would drink mostly soda and juice, and binge drink. I would get this problem semi often (maybe a few times a year.) You should prob just put some carmex on it and drink lots of water. The water isnt going to help it heal faster obv but will prevent it happening again.

I did notice that it seemed to happen when I was eating something big and crusty (... jeez you guys are so immature..) like a fat slice of thin crust pizza, or a big rice crispies treat. Lips are already dried out and then youre opening your mouth all wide and w/e... dont normally notice till you eat something spicy or acidic.

go buy the medicated chap stick, it works well for this type of thing.

I find the normal black original chap stick works nicely.

Try this stuff:

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

haha, gabe has herpes.

chapstick

Redgrape20 (10:04:21 PM): gabe has an STD
Redgrape20 (10:04:23 PM): i think

no redgrape fucker its not a sore god dammit

Lukie has this same thing right now actually. We might have to consider the possibility that its an STD gabe.

no respect!

Gabe I'm really sorry, but you are pretty much describing oral herpes to a tee. It's no big deal, most people have it, dormant or otherwise. Buy some Zovirax (or whatever the brand name is in the US), don't irritate it, and it'll go away soon.

:wall: :wall: :wall:
i KNOW its not the oral herp

(NB you need to be *this* old to understand the above pic)

ya im too young, i dont get it

tortilla chips! thats what does it to me the most. Already dehydrated, then the sat and the rough edges of the chips rub against the corners cuz the chips are so damn big (crazy mexicans!) and they are normally accompanied by something spicy/acidic like salsa to irritate the spot further.

Get some anbesol.

drink more beer

quit kissing dudes.

No, bio is not leveling. Not sure if this it what was causing Gabe's problem or not. It's different but related to the other herpes. People inveted names like cold sore and fever blister because no one wants to say "I have some herpes on my lips!".

ok if hes not leveling then .. well.. hes being a retard. You can get cuts, which if irritated, can be kind of sore like and not have herpes. This is a specific problem that happens in the corner of your mouth because its prone to getting these small cuts... I dont think theres corner-of-the-mouth herpes...

he's not being a retard. it could be something like chapped lips or it could very well be herpes. pretty much everyone is latently infected with HSV1. you can get sores anywhere in the oral cavity or around the mouth including the nose, cheeks, eyes, etc but lesions on the lips are the common.

Yeah like I said I have no idea without looking at it, but I can tell you reading the post my first thought was cold sore. Part of the fun of having one is telling yourself for three days you don't have one. You certainly can get sores in the corner of your mouth, and they behave really differently depending on where they are at.

i demanded a pic and gabe refused claiming he had to go study for a final. Obv a lie.

empatigo!! ftw.

If you've ever had a cold sore, you do. Oral herpes is HSV1. Genital herpes is HSV2.

Man, boost, I appreciate the apology but still. No, I'm not leveling. I had cold sores from as early as I can remember until I was 19 - and I am well aware I could get another at any time. It's not sexually transmitted (I mean, it can be through kissing, but that's not the same), it's nothing to be ashamed of - it's just a painful nuisance.

What Gabe described is EXACTLY what a cold sore is - I know, I've had dozens, all in the coirner of the mouth. So if he does have one, then he should a) be aware - he might want to avoid kissing (etc.) anyone during the outbreak, and b) buy the correct meds to minimalise the problem. And if he doesn't have one - if it is just two cuts that got irritated - then great.

Jeez Mark, you'll sit on here and talk about a sore mouth, but won't switch on AIM and talk to me about poker...!

Yeah, this is why I posted, because I had no idea until like 3-4 years ago this is what they were, we always called them fever blisters in my family and I really thought they were 'caused' by fevers but I guess that's just one factor that can help them show up or whatever.

yah Im clearly no scientist, but Im guessing that your immune system is weakened by fevors and thats what makes it easier to get an outbreak.

Btw, I didnt realize that both bio and drmc where saying the same stuff, just kinda apologized to drmc, so umm yah sorry bio.
