Lip bumps causes and remedies

Eruptions on the lips are usually due to an allergy to a medication or cosmetic product being used or even a food item that has been consumed. If you have recently started a new medication or changed your brand of lipstick or any cream that comes in contact with your lips, stop using it immediately and consult your doctor or dermatologist. It  is also important to first test for allergies to any chemical or food item that you may be consuming.


Sometimes bumps may appear on the lips after an operation due to an after reaction to the drugs and medication that was used, but these would go away as the effect wears off. For immediate relief from such eruptions you can rub some ice on the lips. Rubbing Aloe Vera gel on your lips can also help to treat these bumps.


Bumps on the lips can also occur due to Hepatits C, so you should consult a doctor and if he suspect lichen plannus then a liver test would be prescribed. Finally bumps on the lips, tongue or palate can also be due to a gential human papilloma virus infection. This infection is observed the most amongst sexually active patients who indulge in oral sex frequently.

Bumps causes and remedies 

If your bumps are a result of your injury, the first question to address is whether your injury is healed or not. It is also important to know how much time has elapsed since you have had the injury. If it was recent and has not yet healed, then you must take certain measures to first heal the injury. For healing of any kind of injury, the best solution is to apply a paste made of clarified butter and turmeric powder and leave it on for a while. Turmeric has antiseptic and antifungal properties which will help to heal the injury and do away with the pus-filled boils that keep reappearing.

You must also make it a point to have a glass of warm milk with a teaspoon of turmeric powder added to it before bedtime. This will help to heal your body from within. In order to avoid injuries from lingering on any longer than it takes for them to heal, you can also start taking Echinacea pills. These are easily available over the counter and will help you greatly, as they are well known to strengthen your immune system. If you boost your immunity, there will be no reason for such things to happen to you in the future.
