Hi.
As per your case history you of itching on lips, my treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply an emollient cream like Enmoist cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for itching.
4. Other treatment options are oral steroid, hydroxyzine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks.
