Can Lip Blisters Be Caused By Spicy Food?
i am a 55 year old female. i attempted to eat a stuffed jalapeno pepper at a tailgate party. It was so hot. It was actually painful and i have been in pain since then. I now have tiny blisters on the inside of my lower lip and my bottom lip is a little swollen. could it be from the peppers? I have never had any type of blisters before. What can i do for the blisters?

HI
Well come to HCM
Thank for asking
Your query being appreciated, as long as the lesions that you have (Oral, lips) that could be due to the diet taken and it is the first possibility can be taken as granted, if it happened only after you eat stuffed jalapeno, just wait for few days and it will come around, if not then condition could be due to some infection, till then you can try Povidone Iodine gargle, dental condition also needs to be ruled out hope this information helps.
