What Causes Around My Lips?
I have had for maybe a year or more, redness around my lips, that includes the skin surrounding my mouth - sometimes it looks so red that it looks likely clown makeup. I ve been drinking more liquids, using a cortibalm lip agent, and cutting back on coffee, but the redness remains.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest using Calamine lotion for local application.
I also suggest using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg which can be found over the counter.
I recommend to avoid allergens that can trigger the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
