Sun lip blister treatment
Common Questions and Answers about Sun lip blister treatment
lip
I have had a "blood blister" on my bottom lip for more than a year now. It sort of gets better in the winter time. I remember going to a dermatologist once when I was younger and him giving me steroids for it and it kind of went away, but not all the way. My bottom lip is very sensitive to foods that are acidic and spicy. Toothpaste kills! I do have Polymorphous light eruption and I am wondering if it has anything to do with it? Or maybe if it's Bullous Pemphigoid?
Around July of last year, I was with my boyfriend and other people at the shore and I got severely sunburned. as a result I ended up getting a blister on my lip. I assumed immediately it was a blister from the sun and it healed within a week or two but left a slightly reddish scar.
About 3 days ago i noticed that i was getting red in the lips in the exact place i had the blister last year. and now there is a bump and small amounts of clear fluid in them.
I have a pimple like clear round blister inside my lower lip. I'm concerned that it is herpes, a cold sore. It heals but it is still there, it comes out again. Should I be concerned or could it just be a mucocele?
Fast forward to a few days ago, I woke up with a blister on my lip and my lips were swollen and releasing a lot of this clear fluid - from all over my lips, not just the blister. I also had a rash around the lining of my lips.
The day after, I woke up to extreme swelling and a number of yellow blisters on my lips. My lips release this clear pus like fluid constantly. My lips become yellow and crusty in the mornings - I usually clean the with a cotton pad soaked in salt water.
I have this small bump on my lower lip, however I tested negative for oral herpes. It doesn't look like a blister AT ALL, there's no pain (well except if I bite it). No burning, tingling, itching nothing! It's ON the lip and its the SAME Color as my lip, I don't see any redness around it. I was fishing at the beach from 12-10 yesterday could it be from the sun? Could it be that I bite my lips often?
Today I have been out in the Texas sun (temp up to 102 degrees at time plus some humidity). I am overweight around 400+ pounds so I sweat a lot. I had been going in and out of stores from hot to cold quite often plus wiping my face. I noticed today that I have some slight buring on the lips and what I thought appeared to be a pimple starting at the top center of my upper lip.
I have tried to get you the best pictures of my lips as I can.
I woke up about four hours later to take a boat trip and felt a strange tingling on my upper lip line. After being in the sun all day, it slowly developed into a blister later that evening. I’d like to also state that on top of international travel and heavy sun exposure, I was still recovering from an upper respiratory infection. The blister eventually went, scabbed and left, but I’ve never had one before in my life.
The corners did itch and were painful. Even when I put any type of antifungal or fever blister treatment on the mouth it would burn. Right now the corners have healed. The center of my upper lip is very chapped and dry. Do you think I should see a dermatologist now or should I wait to see if the corners crack again. My family doc did not seem to think I had angular chelitis.
I noticed the area of skin on my lip was feeling itchy and dry shortly after having gone to the beach. I suspect that the lip had gotten sun burned (I used a sun screen but it is very possible that I missed that spot). Could the skin be possibly sun damaged? And, if so, would the problem persist for this long? If is a sun related injury, what is the proper way to remedy it?
For 4 to 5 yrs I've been having a lip problem. They will get red and swollen 1st then blister then they burst and ooze very painful then peel. Sometimes they will get better and then sometimes they continue to repeat this over and over. It can get better in 10 days or several weeks. It seems to happen in summer mostly and especially when I'm on vacation in the sun. Do I feel like sun is definitely a factor.
I read an article about sun uv light triggering it and decided to get lip balm w/an spf of 45 (hawaiian tropic) I put that on my lips at least 30 min before i leave the house to get absorbed in and might reapply a few times a day. I now only get cold sores maybe once every 5-6 yrs. Also, if my lip itches, I never scratch it b/c that also triggers a cold sore (trauma to the lip) hope that helps.

Some causes of the symptoms you mention, could be lip biting, lip licking, Vit.B2 deficiency, smoking, overexposure to sun and ill fitting dentures. In extreme cases, this could be due to bacterial or fungal skin infection.
You need to drink plenty of water daily – around 1.5 – 3 litres per day and eat a balanced diet. Do not keep your lips dry; apply lip balm which contains sunscreen – preferably a medicated one.
I have a blister inside my upper lip and it has blistered, burst, healed, blistered, burst, healed etc. for a year and a half now. The healing only lasts for a single day. In one week it will have gone through two cycles. It is painful to brush my teeth and sometimes to eat and I have to avoid drinks that are citric. I have been to the doctor several times and three months ago he finally took a good look with a light and saw it. He promised to refer me to a specialist but nothing has happened.
I recently had a small outbreak on my lip (or what seemed to be an outbreak...im not quite sure)...anyways, I was able to essentially scrape off the bumps until they bled and went away...however, a few hours later they were healed and looked like the blister again...does this sound like herpes? Can it come back that quick?
Now three days later, my lower right lip where the inside of the lip meets feels a little irritated but no visible blister. I have been out in the sun and wind but I have had tests in the past showing that I'm neg for both types. Just curious if it is plausible to pick it up from touching something someone got their saliva /mouth on just seconds before I touched the same inanimate object.
Please advise.

t look likes herpes. I had no other places until a recent sun burn and now my bottom lip is either cold sores or same. It worries me because of the continuance. Sometimes once a month, sometimes every 6 months. I had a bout with shingles on my leg almost 9 years ago. I am 57 years old in good health other than this. My boyfriend of 5 years has not had any outbreaks. I have used topical ointment and it goes aware quicker now.
