Suggest Medication To Cure Swollen Lips Along With Tingling Sensation
My lower lip is slightly swollen, burning, tingling, peeling and has one area where there is a small sore that won t go away. I have used various lip balms such as Carmex and blistex, I have had this condition for 2-3 weeks now with no real improvement. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Swelling of lower lip accompanied by tingling, burning and peeling could be due to herpes labialis infection. I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment. Treatment for herpes labialis is primarily anti-viral topical ointment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
