I've been dealing with this issue where the skin on my lower lip tends to harden and then get really dry. I always end up peeling it off, but then the whole cycle just starts over again. It's pretty frustrating. What could be causing this, and how can I stop it from happening?

Question

Question

I've been dealing with these persistent pimples that start small but get pretty big and filled with pus over about 12 days. The skin underneath gets hard and it really hurts. When I try to squeeze them, a bit of pus and blood comes out. After about a week, they leave behind a black spot but then new ones keep coming up right after the old ones disappear. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on with my skin. Any idea what this could be?

Question

I've just found out my HSV 1 and 2 IgG count is 30.0 positive, but I haven't had any symptoms at all. The only reason I got tested was because my partner started having herpes lesions. Should I be worried about my health going forward? I'm already on medication, but I'm still pretty concerned.
