A zit ON the lip - not the edge? (sh.itjust.works)

I found a lump on my lip the other day. Like literally on the lip-lip. Not the edge where I've had them happen before. I've NEVER had that happen. A zit ON the lip which I squeezed a yellow lump out of.

How does that happen? AFAIK the lip doesn't have pores? It's a mucus membrane?

That's like getting a zit on your eye ball...

How? Am I going to die? Has anyone else had this?

Don't tell me to see a doctor about a lip zit!

Ooooh, buddy, you got any new smoochin partners lately? Or share a drink with someone new? I'm no doc but ya might have gotten one of the most common STDs on the earth, oral herpes.

It's fairly manageable, my boyfriend has it and I don't, you just gotta be really careful about when you have sores and make sure not to kiss anyone or share drinks until the scabs FULLY heal.
