What Causes Swelling And Tingling Sensation In The Lips?

My lips have been slightly swollen, tingling, burning for about six weeks. My Dermatologist has had me using Hydrocortisone cream with Aloe, Aveena Healing ointment for two weeks, then tried Triamcinolone acetone cream. None of this affected the lips. Yesterday my PCP gave me injection of steroid, still no lessening of symptoms. My 45 yo son was diagnosed with Chellitus granulomatosis as a teenager. I have not changed my environment or diet. My Physician is stumped.
