It noticed this evening when I got home from work that my 6 month old kitten has this red little area below her lower lip. I'm really scared that it is an infection that is untreatable or will cause her to stop eating. She behaves perfectly normal right now and her behavior hasn't changed from the norm.
When I gently touch the spot, she doesn't react with any obvious pain, but knowing from experience with cold sores, I know how they feel. I did some research and I heard that this could be feline acne, but I don't know for sure.
I just want some input advice from cat owners who've dealt with this before I take her to the vet. It would be something minor that will go away on its own or with some care, but I don't want to take any chances with my sweet little girl.
And yes, I wash her dishes and replace her food daily. Here are some pictures:

If anyone has any advice or info on what this is, please reply. I'm starting to get concerned that this might be something more serious than it looks.
Thank you!
