Weird Feeling Like Tingling On Lips. History Of Eating Unwashed Lettuce Followed By Hearing Tragic News In Family. Recommend

My lips started feeling weird like they were tingling like pepper was on them I'm trying to think what I drank or ate different .. the only thing I could think of is I had some lettuce from work that I think wasn't washed! Also I had some bad news today of a long time friends passing that I can't accept so I thought that might be something to do with it? Can you recommend something to soothe them for now till I seek further help?

Hi wierd tingling of the lips can be due to mild angioedema.i think it is only due to allergens caused by eating unwashed lettuce.it can be cured by antihistamine atarax 25 mg in the night and use of calamine lotion over the lips can soothen it.and i do not think it is related to ur hearing of any sad news or anything else
