What Causes Bluish Discoloration Of Lips In A Child?
Hi, I have a 6 year old in perfect health. I noticed about 4 days ago that her lower lip was blue. I figured it was from sprinkles in a donut. It is still very much there 4 days later. She just had a bath and although the water was very warm, it was a very dark blue. What could be going on???

Hello,
As the lip looking blue even with warm water, it may be due to some vascular malformation. Please consult a local doctor, as he will examine the child and diagnose it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
