I got fillers in my top lip, and got a cold sore on the right hand side of my lip. The cold sore healed quite nicely, with no damage to the skin. However where the filler sits is slightly swollen and red. It doesnt hurt except when i massage it. But the pain is minimal and bearable. I was wondering what the problem might be or what i can do. I have been applying arnica gel as adviced for some time now but maybe not as frequently as i should.
