What Causes Dry Throat And Grey Lips During Exertion In A Child?

My 13 year old daughter seems to get gray lips while she is working out or exerting herself. She has allergies and I was thinking that perhaps it could be allergies or mild asthma. She s active and at a normal weight. She complains a dry or burning throat when this occurs. Thoughts??

First of all you didn't mention duration of this complaint so I will consider that she has this problem of long duration.. If after exertion there are grey lips and she gets tired...do two things 1st is hemoglobin in blood and second check if there is some disease related to heart...doctor will auscultate and guide you...For that ...and yes it could be allergy also...to find what allergies she have there is an allergen test of blood...
