Hello I have a question for u people out there that has been plauging me for about a year. Throughout the year i've had a reoccuring "rash" you could say on my lips faintly discolored and dry and scaly lasting any where from 2 days to a week. And only occurs every other month. I've been to the doctor twice about it the first doctor gave me some type of anti-fungal cream that i'm not so sure of it's effectiveness but the "rash" did go away but continued to occur. Recently it came back but this time it burned and itched. My lips slighty swell and secretes a very small amout of liquid. This new "rash" was alot worst than the previous ones it came to the point where I could not fully open my mouth because my skin on my lips would split burn and then secrete a film of yellowed liquid. Now this all sounds a little unslightly but it is not easily visible to the average person... Even when I went to the doctor for the second time about this new type of rash he and the nurse did not immediately see any problems with my lips. Eventually the doctor concluded it was frostbite coupled with an allergic reaction and prescribe hydroxine for the swelling and itching and ibprofen. With continued use of medicated chapstick all was going well for about 5-6 days until yesterday it flared up again. The burning has come back and my lips are swollen. I'm beginning to think it is someting else besides frostbite.......Help, please help, does anyone recognize this condition>
