Im a 17 year old asian male with dark lips. I was born with lighter lips but i have neglected them when i was younger. I have always peeled and ate the skin of my lips (I know disgusting lol) when i was younger and they were chapped. Everytime i went to the dentists, when i'd have my teeth pulled and they used anesthesia i'd take very hot water and test on my lips to see how i can not feel the pain. I never really cared about my lips from about 5 years old to 13.
I am a 22 year old female who for the last couple of years have suffered with darkening of lips. I suffer from eczema so i dont know if this is a contributory factor but i have periods where my lip darkens and but then goes away, only this time the lips is getting more pigmented and shows no signs of getting better. Please Please help me ive cried over this so many times because no seems to have an answer for it and its really starting to affect my confidence. Thank you so much for your time.
So I had this conditions for years now, in the beginning was my both lips, every morning I would wake up with this tiny dark spots on my lips, when I press them, saliva comes out and makes the shape of small bubbles which leaves my lips super dry.
I tried few ways to moisture them but they kept dry.
I tan very easy, and i am have dark features and have freckles on face. About a month ago i noticed a small dark freckle in the inside of my nose towards right inside of it. I can see it in a mirror. I am getting concerned and wondering if i should be calling my doctor about skin cancer. If anyone could give any feedback that would be wonderful! Thank you. I have had moles removed and skin tags in the past, amd they have all been tested with negative results.
Well, it's been 5 days and I haven't done anything to the rash since she hasn't complained and it has nearly gone away. I noticed she does tend to sort of pull in her lips when she's being shy so perhaps that caused it?
I figured it would go away but am still curious what it might be caused by; could very well be what you suggested but probably no way to know for certain without having her looked at.
I suspect next time she needs to go for a Dr.
To prevent blackness of the lips, smoking and chewing, biting or pricking the skin of the lips should be avoided. The most effective solution for treating dark lips is alexandrite and ND-Yag Q-Switched laser treatment. Please discuss these options with your dermatologist.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor.
Rare but serious causes of dark spots on lips are oral melnaotic macules and Peutz Jegher ‘s syndrome .Keep your lips well hydrated. Apply lemon juice mixed with glycerine.Cutting down on tea, coffee and quitting smoking may help. If it persists consult a dermatologist. He may suggest appropriate treatment. I hope it helps.
Take care and regards!
My son turns two next weekend and is already in a toddler bed. We live in a one level home and he has always come to my room and either slept with me or woken me up. He has been in his big bed for a few months at least. I didn't want him getting jealous of the new baby taking "his" crib. I wasn't going to buy two cribs when he is big enough for a toddler bed.
Secondly it can be due to cheilitis. Avoid licking the lips as saliva evaporates quickly resulting in them being drier than before. Drink plenty of water and take multivitamin supplements and do not apply lipstick or other cosmetic products for some days. Use a humidifier to moisturize the air in your home and apply shea butter or Vaseline on your lips. If a week of compresses and emollients don't do the trick, you can add over-the-counter 1 percent hydrocortisone ointment to your regimen.
s lip balm with SPF 15 to help protect your lips from direct heat and UV. Other lip balm or lip moisturizers with SPF may also help. There is no definite treatment for dark lips although micropigmentation which is used to apply permanent colors on the lips, eyes and eye brows may be used to bring color to the lips. This is more extensive and entails more risks but may give more dramatic and long lasting results.
can you tell me if the vitamin E cream has helped you in the long run and if the dark skin in and around the corner of the lips has disappeared ? My son last July got thèse cold sores for the first time on his lips right after a conjunctivitis and healed from it but just few weeks later we had to travel to India and it turned more darker and visible...as if He was having a moustache ...guess that list the hot weather that have accelerated the darkness...
What can cause a dark spot on the lips, as if there was a concentration of blood beneath the surface? There is no actual bleeding, and no sensations whatsoever. The skin is otherwise normal, no blister or anything. The lips are a normal color, aside from the one darker area.
I have a severe cold sore phobia and the lips belong to a family member I live with.
My friend's 3year old daughter kissed on lips of another girl on same age at her school. School teacher put a note to parents to advise her daughter to do not kiss on lips.
Is this is bad behavior?/ is the right age to alert such kids. If we alert her she will surely ask lot of question and it may lead to explore lot of new ideas on one innocent action.
so she might just bite her lips..and it was in the dark...she bites on her own lips and me as a fool i kissed her!may be she wanted me to get hiv something and she knew i had broken lips(i always have broken lips)so she just bite her own lips to remove some blood and she kissed me!im really stressed over this thing! u guys think i can get HIV this way and u think someone can be so bad on EARTH to bite her own lips???!pls i need your replies!
