What Could Be The Reasons Of Recurring Lip Crack Which Started After Kissing A Gay Guy?
Male, 42 years old. Gay Side of lips cracks every 2 weeks or so. No pus. No blisters bursting. Weird num feeling sometimes inside of lips. The symptoms began after kissing a gay guy ONE time in a disco. I could not see the guy, because it was dark. So I have no idea how his lips looked like.

hello friend,
welcome to healthcaremagic. i read your query and understood your concern.
Such symptoms can be seen in a condition called herpes labialis.
It may not be associated with obvious blistering sometimes.
But numbness can be felt in herpes infection.
So, i will advice you to visit your dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis so that correct medication can be started.
Thanx
