Red Bumps Around Lips.

I have been having outbreaks of little red, painful, itchy bumps around my mouth. All I have been using is vaseline because I get outbreaks every time I use any other lip products. I only got these bumps after I foolishly used lip sticks or chap stick, now I get these little bumps almost every week they last days and then an out break starts again. At times I wake up with my swollen lips. What could this be?

Do not use any chemical products on your lips. Se if the recurrence of bumps stops. Meet the dermatologist and let him/her examine theesebumps if they appear again and get them treated. Also start yourself on some multivitamin suppliment, it might help if these are occuring due to some deficiency in the body.
