<s>[INST] Hi, I was recently diagnosed with herpes, not sure what type yet, but it seems to be a mild case as I dont have lesions, but my lips keep swelling everyday and nothing turns into cold sores, just two small bumps and swelling, along with tingling and tingling tip of tongue. Will the swelling stop eventually, as this is an initial outbreak, it just seems like it wont stop! Im really going out of my mind and hope that it will stop :( [/INST] Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have swelling and tingling in lips along with bumps like cold sores is because of herpes virus infection. This virus stay in inactive form in nerve endings and oral cavity and becomes active once it got stimulus like poor immunity of body. Need not panic about it at all. It is completely curable. I would suggest you to take antiviral Chat Doctor.  Maintain proper oral hygiene. Use antimicrobial mouth wash. Do gargles on daily basis. Hope your concern has been resolved. </s>
