What is this on my lip?

I randomly got a bump on my lip. I’m nervous it’s a cold sore, but I’ve never had one before so I’m not sure. I was eating spicy food so I thought maybe that caused the irritation on my lips. It has gone down since yesterday when it first appeared. What could it be?

Complaint duration: Since yesterday

Your lip condition is difficult to diagnose from the photo. Cold sores usually present with blisters and are painful. A bacteria may cause a sore area on the lip and many cases resolve on their own. Best to visit a local dermatologist if your condition persists.
