Brief Answer:
Dear it could be Vitiligo...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thankyou for asking here.
Dear first I would like to ask that have you ever got checked by a dermatologist?
From your history it seems it could be vitiligo patch for that if you could upload pic of that discolouration site I would really appreciate that.

Vitiligo is an autoimmune skin condition which has no cause .I would also like to ask wether this discolouration of lip is increased in size more than before and are other sites of body also affected?

Eldem tablet is an ayurvedic tablet so I dont have any clue about this medicine...

After seeing pic of discolouration site I would be able to clarify you more and will be happy to help.

Wish you best of health,
Dr.Maheshwari
