Hi my mouth has become very sore with various lumps on and around my lips. My lips have also swelled to double there size and they are very painful and restricting the movement of my move and causing lack of sleep. One of the lumps has a large black dot in the middle could you please tell me what it could possibly be. Thankyou

well these could be due to Herpes infection or some benign cystic lesions getting infected.
please go for an FNAC/Cytology microscopical test for confirmation!
probably a viral infection, do you have any associated fever. usually self limiting, but if it is persistent for more then a week, you will have to see a doc for further investigation. just avoid spicy food and take analgesics for pain(Diclfenac sodium 50mg 1-0-1).
