What Does A Pimple On Upper Lip Indicate?

default
Posted on Mon, 20 Oct 2014
Question: Hello

My 11 year old son had a boil looking pimple on his chin. With heat compress the white infection came out but his upper lip is swollen. No fever. Should he see a Dr? I meant to say its his lower lip on the right side. The bump was below. He had MSRA when he was 2 on his toe.

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic

Dear Ms,

Infection of upper lip definitely requires systemic antibiotic and anti-inflammatory.

It would be very helpful if you could get back to me with clinical photograph for further assessment for me to be able to guide you further.

Awaiting your response
