Q: Burning Lips
asked by: HyperCaffeinated on January 22nd, 2008

About 24 hours ago, my lips suddenly started to feel like they were burning and my bottom lip is swelled a bit. I thought I was having an allergic reaction to something I'd eaten earlier, but when I woke up this morning and found my lips to be in the same condition they were in, I decided that was not the case.

Now they don't LOOK much different from normal (execept for the deeper red color). They feel almost like they're sunburnt but it's the middle of the winter so I don't how likely that it... I've beend rinking water and constantly applying chap stick but nothing seems to be working.

I googled it, thinking maybe it was a wicked cold sore or something, but I got nothing.

I wouldn't exactly say "I'm worried" but if I wake up tomorrow morning and nothing has changed I may be.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?? Any tips?

Do you drink a lot of coffee? haha -- just your username

Um, I think that swollen lips are NOT a sign of a cold sore b/c herpes (cold sore) is accompanied by a bubble, and then a scar. A dermatologist can help you. Sorry I don't have more answers for you right now.
