Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have some problem in my lips. Its like small dots. It jus appeared 1 day before. What medicine can i use? Can you give me some names of medicines which i cn find easily in pharmacy. My friend adviced me to use Zytee but I am currently at Sydney and i don t know its available here or not.. can you give me the name of medicine which i can find here?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have small dark spots on the lips which could be because of change in hormonal balance but other causes could be the possible options like it can be due to -Lip licking -Vit.B2 deficiency -Smoking -Overexposure to sun or post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Need not to worry. Avoid stress, drink plenty water and rest properly. I would suggest you to include various skin creams like hydroquinone, azelaic acid, corticosteroids, tretinoin cream and laser treatment.Apply hydroquinone cream on this scar and it should go away in a few days to months. Also take some vit B12 supplements and avoid lip licking.Also apply a good lip balm and sunscreens with spf 30 at least half an hour before going out in sun. If still the symptoms do not improve then please get a clinical examination done by a dermatologist.Bacterial and fungal infections have to be ruled out.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
