Symptoms of allergies under the lips

Allergies confined to the lips are often related to the contact of the lips. They are most likely to be confused with fire and other situations. It is possible to treat allergies mistakenly as fire and other situations, or mistakenly treat fire as allergy. Therefore, when there are allergic symptoms limited to the lips, we should first investigate the allergens from food, cosmetics, skin care products and other things that can contact the lips. If the same kind of goods have no allergic symptoms before contacting the lips, they can be basically excluded as non allergens; The first contact with the most suspicious items, contact with this kind of items on the symptoms, can be identified as allergens. If the allergen can not be ruled out, the treatment of upward fire should be considered; If the allergen is excluded, it is treated as allergy.

All items that can contact the human body and all foods eaten should be listed. In addition, systemic symptoms are not necessarily allergies, but may also be complications of viral infection or other diseases. Therefore, it is recommended to seek medical advice in time for systemic symptoms, and do not diagnose and treat them at will, so as not to delay the illness.

After finding out the allergen, it is necessary to avoid contacting the allergen again. Simple lip contact allergy, as long as the cause of allergic food or cosmetics can not contact the lips.

Don't let the food touch your lips. You can't spit the saliva stained with the food, but swallow it, so as not to stimulate your lips. As for cosmetics, we have to avoid using the same brand and type.
