Avatar m tn Hello, I am 14 years old and i have this problem with my lips. It started in the middle of July when I had lost my vaseline for 3 days. My lips went without anything on them for this time and became dry and chapped. I did not like how they looked and i decided to exfoliate with warm water and a toothbrush. I noticed that i may have exfoliated to roughly when the skin grew back and would become white with water. I had brought some blistex because i wanted to find a cure to this.
Avatar f tn In January I had a really bad cold sore blister on my bottom lip..I accidentally bit it and it just would not heal..In early march my primary care doc sent me to a dermatologist and he did a biopsy since it just would not heal..The biopsy came back negative for cancer but was identified as lichen simplex chronicus, the doc said it should heal within a few weeks with vaseline. Well it is now May and my lip is just not right..

Avatar f tn All you have to do is leave your lips dry and put no chapstick petroleum or moisturizer on your lip. The patches that show up on your lip are trying to form a scab on your lip to heal and replace your skin underneath this will take a while so your mask will be your best friend because it won’t look pretty.
Avatar n tn When i was like, 4-5 a dog bit me on the lip and kinda ripped it a little and left a scar. It looks like a bump on my lip and then theres a little line right above my lip from it. i really want it to go away! Im 14 now and it still hasnt gone away. Everytime i meet somebody new, they ask about it and its really embarassing. PLEASEE HELP!
Avatar m tn 3 days ago I bit through my inner bottom lip - it didn't go all the way through but there is bruising on the outside of my lower lip. It was a big gash but i didn't go and get stitches straight away. 12hrs later I went to the clinic and they said they could not stitch the gash up because of tissue (not just a bump on the lip but actual tissue through the gap) protruding through the wound. They said the tissue would shrink within a few days and the lip would heal itself.
Avatar m tn I bit my lip to the other day I woke up today and it bleed alot :/and it has white on it to I'm confused
Avatar n tn To help balance my lip paralysis in my left lower lip my PS gave me tiny bit of Btox on the right side to at least balance it till it came back. Well it came back in about 2 months but where the botox was injected still hasn't! It was a teeny tiny spot on my chin where he placed it and so now it is slightly imbalancd from the botox! Its been over a year but apparantly botox in the chin can last a long long time because the muscles there are used often.
Avatar n tn A couple months ago I noticed a red, dry, skin peeling rash above my upper lip. I also had extremely dry lips. It is winter here and it got very cold and dry very fast and I thought that was what caused the problem. I try to keep as hydrated as possible and I used lots of Vaseline and Paw Paw on my lips and above upper lip to combat the dryness. My lips have fully healed, but I still have this rash above my upper lip.
Avatar n tn I've seen other forums with this same topic; basically, I have 3 scabs on my right shoulder area that won't heal, and in fact continue to expand in area. What concerned me is that two also appeared on my face, one on my right temple and one below the lip (the soul-patch area). They occasionally ooze a bit, (normally at the instant I pick them off). Then of course there is the "standard set:" scabs flaking off revealing open wound, mild oozing, and cycling over.
Avatar f tn I got a cold sore last Saturday on my bottom lip and now it has been bleeding and forming a yellow crust on the area. Sometimes it drips down on my lip and I have to peel it off, which sometimes makes it bleed. I think I got two cuts on my lips too so I have been trying to keep them covered from my cold sore with vaseline. I apply abrevia and vaseline to the sore multiple times every day. When I woke up this morning, I noticed little bumps on my bottom lip.
Avatar f tn Hi may i say the Shin does take month's to heal , i also had a bad scrape on the Shin and wouldn't heal , but given time it will , as i say it will heal; but is terribly slow place to heal , Take care ,
Avatar n tn Now, the skin healed but the cyst is still there - I can feel a little ball when I am pushing my tongue against the back of the lip, it also looks like a half-pea-sized pimple on my lip line. What do I do with it?
Avatar n tn Herpes won't come that fast with an initial outbreak plus heal time takes a while longer on herpes then 3 days. It is normal after a scab falls off to have some redness around the area.
Avatar m tn Greetings, It has been 2~weeks since my minor surgery to extract the mucocele from the lower left lip., the stitches are gone now but my lip still seems a bit swollen still. It is noticeable because my friend pointed it out to me. I am wondering will this go away? will my lip be aligned normally again. Thank you for your time Dr. Bhupinder.
558059 tn?1288550944 Hi Just by chance I started smearing Petroleum jelly on my lip ..AND after 2 weeks the sore place on my lip has healed... Don't know in the long term if this is the answer. But at the moment it's working fine!
Avatar f tn Do yall think its bad to get my lip pierced while pregnant or should i wait ?
Avatar n tn Hi All, Quick question. I'm 25 years old and have NEVER had a cold sore. I was actually given a blood test last year for HSV-1 and HSV-2 and both came back negative. I did however, since then date someone who had cold sores. In brief, it felt as though I had just had really really chapped lips that ended up splitting in one area. This area did NOT have a blister on it or anything like that but since splitting, has begun to heal (much like a canker sore).
Avatar f tn This sounds way more like trauma to the lip. sometimes they can be a booger to heal because they can be in an area where they are constantly stimulated by licking, sippy cups, thumb sucking etc. You know how we adults are even - we can't leave it alone!!! You won't get hsv1 from the pool - you'd get it from mommy or daddy kissing your boo boo to make it better to be completely honest.
Avatar m tn Hey, New here, anyways I really am having a problem that is driving me insane, for a bout a year I have had really bad chapped lips that just won't heal. At first it started as just a small white flim on the left side of my bottom lip, and slowly got worse. I figured it would heal on it's own and I tried just about every chapstick I could get my hands on. Nothing worked and it only seemed to get worse.
Avatar m tn I think it formed after I accidentally bit my lip while I was eating. I did a little bit of research on mucoceles and I couldn't really find any conclusive answers. My question is will a mucocele go away on its own and if so, how long will it take? Is there anything I can do to speed the healing process?
