Well, like a month or two ago, a dark spot on my lip appeared. I thought I just burned my lip or a sunburned spot but it hasn t gone away. It looks like it is becoming darker. I don t know what it is and just need to find out what it is and treat it.
After complete investigations, the doctor might conclude proper treatment. Vitamin B12 injection or tablets may be taken, if there is deficiency of vitamin B12.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
