Swollen lip

I have had a swollen bottom lip. It looks like I have another lip growing. Was wondering if anyone else has heard of this and maybe it is a result of meds

Hi Cakeygirl

😊🌸🌿🦋

I get this occasionally. It’s been a reaction to food medicine or an allergen. I have soooo many of them it’s hard to pinpoint the source. However if your swollen lip is accompanied by itching hives swelling of your tongue or throat breathing difficulties then you could be having an anaphylactic reaction which is an emergency.

Keep and eye on your symptoms write them down with what you ate were doing and time you noticed it so you can take this info to your GP and discuss this matter.

I now keep EPI PENS on hand for life saving self treatment when needed.

I’m not telling you this to scare you but to prepare you should you have a serious reaction to something needing this attention.

Best wishes.

😊🌸🌿🦋🤗💗😘🙏

No this has been a gradual thing over about 2 years. That’s what makes me think it is meds
