My upper lip is mildly swollen, and tingles a bit. What might be the cause and what can I do to alleviate the problem? I do not have health insurance and therefore cannot see a Doctor without tremendous trouble. Are there over the counter rememedies I can try or must I make an appointment? Please help. Thank you.
Hello, Taking Ben Chat Doctor.  A topical variety can be applied directly to the lips. Try to figure out what triggered this reaction. Possibilities include an allergic creation to food or liquids, a reaction to a new dental or cosmetic product, medications and exposure to chemicals, plants or a bug bite. Remove any irritants and stop using any new products. Think of dietary changes that may contribute. Stay well HY
