What Causes Bleeding In The Lips?

Last week, the inside of my lips starting bleeding on both lips and it looked just like I had eaten a red popsicle. After a few days of that, it stopped bleeding but now some yellow ish crush forms where the bleeding used to be. It also looks like there are tiny pinkish dots on some parts of my lips. There hasn’t been any itching, burning, just a little bit of pain when it was bleeding. I was thinking it was an allergic reaction, since I started being super conjested and sneezing a lot since it started. It’s lasted for exactly a week. I don’t know how to make it better!

Hello,

You have symptoms of bleeding in the lips which seems to be due to an allergic reaction and could be due to loss of the natural moist layer of lips.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you apply benzyl benzoate lotion in 25% quantity and apply cold compresses to lips. You should avoid hot, sharp and spicy food substances. Visit oral physician/dermatologist once and get the complete examination done and take the proper course of antibiotics. Avoid repeated touching or pricking of lips. You should apply cold compresses on lips. Avoid applying any cosmetic product on the lips.



Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
