What Causes Fever Blisters On Lips And Painful Blisters On Foot?

I ve developed redness & blisters on only my left foot. Tender to the touch. Also seem to be developing fever blisters on or about my lips. What are some possible causes of this? I know fever blisters can be from the herpes virus. Can that be the issue with my foot as well? Can it be contagious at all?
