Suggest Treatment For Blood Red Line Under Top Lip

I have a blood red line under my top lip. It started out as a dot in the center and now is the length of my top lip. This line is accompanied by flaky lips that are swollen. Also it looks like a red koolaid line around my mouth. My lips are also leaking a clear liquid.

Hi,

It may be cheilitis most probably. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. There may be some cause like toothpaste, dietary food stuff, bad habit like tobacco, smoking, licking the lip, etc.

Apply combined cream of antibiotic and mild steroid like Fucibet cream. And avoid the contact with suspected factor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
