What To Do For Lip Bumps?
Hello Doctor, I have wind burn on my lips and bumps on the inside of my lips. I ve had it for 2 weeks now and my doctor said just to keep applying vaseline. Is there any other type of creme i can buy to put on the inside of my lips where the bumps are?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of bumps and wind burns n the lips, this is an internal problem too.
Hence just applying something on it like Vaseline or any other creme may not help.
I would advise something more than this:
Oral antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines to make it heal from withing too.
Avoid anything which is too hot or too cold.
No spicy food.
All these things together will help for early and permanent recovery.
