Why I got this pimple?

[Anonymous]

I got a big pimple around my mouth area under my lower lip that suddenly appeared last night, is it an infection or a kind of sickness, should I be concerned for it?

Getting pimples is so annoying, man. I doubt it's anything serious though. Here are some possibilies:

- Hormones - Could just be regular hormones acting up. Acne happens.

- Not washing face - If you haven't been washing around your mouth after eating a lot of greasy foods, that could cause a breakout.

- Stress - Big tests coming up or something? Stress can totally make pimples pop up.

- Products - New face wash, shampoo, Chapstick, etc. Something you've been using could be irritating your skin.

- Medical issue - I mean I guess it's possible but pretty rare to just get one pimple from an infection. Unless it's huge and painful.

Chances are you're all good dude. Just keep the area clean so it doesn't get infected. Put some acne cream on it if you have any. It'll probably be gone in a week. Don't stress too much - we've all been there! Just try not to pick at it.

If it gets really huge and painful or more pop up though, maybe ask your parents to take you to the doc. But I wouldn't worry yet. Cystic acne's a bitch.

No I doubt it, but as someone who has acne it can literally be anything which is so exhausting so just keep your face clean, bed sheets/pillow case, phone case. Try not popping it and use a tropical cream

Mouth ulcer, maybe.

Is it dangerous, concerning, how could I have gotten that and any ways to get rid of it?

It’s not inside my mouth it’s outside on my skin, under my lower lip..
