What Is A Pus Filled, Painful, Growing Blister On Bottom Lip Suggestive Of?

I have a (blister ?) On my bottom lip near the corner of my mouth. I thought it was a zit at first... It's getting bigger, very painful, and it's leaking puss. A lot of puss... It's been about 3 days now and I'm freaking out. Any ideas what this could be?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain a painful pus leaking bump at the corner of the lip can be due to bacterial infection in the area while can also be due to hair follicle infection or Folliculitis leading to a painful pus filled bump..
Nothing to worry as it is nothing serious and will be resolved...
You can start cleaning with with betadine solution and apply antibiotic ointment over it..
Do cool compresses over it..
You can also get a script of antibiotics and painkillers from your local physician for faster resolution..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
